Results in Detail Guide to understanding trends since 2010 Increase since 2010 Decrease since 2010 18
Areas requiring immediate action: Vision and Employee Values Overall Perceptions 19
Vision and Employee Values Although many believe employees display the values of CQC (and significantly more than in 2010), they are less positive that leaders display the same values
Overall Perceptions Although employees are generally committed to the future of CQC and the effect it has on people’s lives, the issue of morale in the organisation needs to be addressed urgently
Areas requiring secondary action: Managing Change Reward Communication Survey Action Planning 22
Managing Change Nearly three-fifths of employees do not believe that changes are effectively implemented at CQC
Reward Opinions were divided as to how employees viewed their reward package at CQC, but around two-fifths of employees were dissatisfied with their reward and opinions had become more negative since 2010 *BM = GfK’s benchmark measure for public sector organisations
Communication Opinions on Communications have improved significantly since 2010, but there is a clear need to continue to focus efforts on how cross-team communications can be improved across the organisation
Survey action planning Although a third of employees believe action will be taken as a result of the survey and improvements have been made since the last survey, a similar proportion disagreed with these statements *BM = GfKs benchmark measure for public sector organisations
Areas to be maintained: Learning and Development Leadership Teamwork 27

Leadership (1) Opinions on Line Managers are generally very positive
Leadership (2) Employees were least positive about leaders in terms of their decision-making and visibility *BM = GfK’s benchmark measure for public sector organisations

My Role Employees generally have clear expectations and understanding of their role, but are less likely to feel part of CQC’s future
Equality & Diversity, Inclusion and Well-being Employees are generally positive that CQC is committed to equality and diversity, but striking the balance between home and work is hard for some
Bullying, Harassment and Discrimination Nearly two-fifths of employees (37%) claimed to have either witnessed or actually been bullied or harassed at work
Service Focus I There is clearly a strong service ethos amongst staff at CQC, but they do not always feel the organisation supports them in terms of delivering this service *BM = GfK’s benchmark measure for public sector organisations
