Response
See Table 5
In June FY21 we undertook our first Group-wide
employee engagement survey using off-the-shelf
software and we achieved a response rate of
80.7%. In FY22 we deployed a world-class external
engagement survey and platform. As well as
providing more precise employee engagement
data through the survey, we will also be able to
benchmark our results externally allowing us to
establish our competitive position in the labour
market. The survey was completed in September
FY22 and we were delighted to achieve a global
response rate of 85.4%.
This year we achieved a 69% favourable employee
engagement score (see table 5).
We remain encouraged by the results regarding
diversity and inclusion with an 83% favourable
response to the critical question “RWS promotes
a diverse culture where individuals from all
backgrounds feel a sense of belonging.”
