It was a sprint to the finish line, but we made it!

Thank you to everyone who took the time to complete the People Matter Survey 2022, which closed on Friday.

We are delighted that the overall response rate for Western Health was 31.5 per cent, which means XXX employees took the time to share their view on what we do well and how we can improve our workplace.

Now it’s time to reveal the winner of the Great Response Rate Race, where we turned filling in the survey into a ‘sport’.

The divisional team with the highest survey response rate at Western Health was Allied Health.

More than three quarters of Allied Health staff completed the survey, congratulations on a fantastic effort!

Digital Technology Services and Digital Health and People, Culture and Communications tied for second and Bacchus Marsh and Melton was third.

See how your team fared on our final scorecard.

Ten members of the Allied Health team will now be turned into caricatures by acclaimed artist and former Melbournian, Will Baker, who designed the iconic cartoon characters featuring in the survey promotions.

In addition to the divisional team prize, 19 raffle prizes were given away to staff, including spa vouchers, hampers and travel cutlery sets.

Thanks again to everyone who took the time to complete the survey.

The Victorian Public Service Commission will provide us with a summary of the anonymous results in December.  

We look forward to sharing a summary of the feedback with you early in 2023 and letting you know how we will use this feedback to drive improvements in our workplace.
