PAE-12: Employee Satisfaction Evaluation

An Employee Satisfaction Survey was administered in 2008 and elicited valuable feedback about employee's feelings about the university and topics of concern to be improved upon. The Staff Advisory Council at the University of Missouri-Columbia was formed by the Chancellor in October 1978. The mission of the Council includes advising the chancellor on matters of mutual interest, and provides an appropriate and effective channel for bringing staff members’ concerns and interests to campus administration. The Council acts as a liaison for staff and administration on matters which are initiated by staff, and also on those initiated by the Council. The Council attempts to heighten awareness of contributions made by staff members to the University of Missouri, and recognizes those contributions publicly. It also serves as an information source for staff members regarding policy changes which affect them. The Council does not function as a bargaining unit or a grievance committee. The following items were selected as the Council goals for 2010-2011 and were based off of the results of the satisfaction survey administered: *Initiate a Staff Task Force to research innovative ideas for improving compensation packages and enhancing staff development *Pursue an early-out retirement alternative *Promote the contributions of MU staff to the community and the MU institution at large *Encourage career enhancement and job training opportunities *Address job security issues *Support the Chancellor’s Diversity Initiative by promoting a welcoming, inclusive and equitable campus climate This information is available at: http://staffcouncil.missouri.edu/goals/index.html
