PEO Climate Survey Questions FINAL

PEO EIS Climate Survey

OMB CONTROL NUMBER: 0702-0153

OMB EXPIRATION DATE: November 4, 2024

Dear PEO EIS Colleague:

The success of PEO EIS depends on its greatest resource…you! Our workforce must possess the skills, tools, and supporting culture to meet EIS’s ever-changing and challenging missions, and it is leadership’s job to make sure you have everything you need. To do that, we are implementing this annual Climate Survey.

The PEO EIS Climate Survey is our instrument to measure workforce mission-readiness, leadership engagement, and the supportive organizational culture to build and sustain our organization’s strategic goals.

The PEO EIS Climate Survey provides a confidential mechanism for employees to share feedback on your work environment, with results that will help leaders better understand the environment and engage in thoughtful, data-driven discussions to inform action and improve our collective performance. Your responses will help us understand where we need to improve our organizational culture and management practices. Your opinion counts!

Your participation in this survey is voluntary. Your privacy and confidentiality are guaranteed throughout this process. The milSuite survey tool will hold your identity confidential and will not provide PEO EIS with your name or any other individually identifying information.

On average, the survey will take about 30 minutes to complete, and you may use duty time to take it. If you have any questions about the nature of this survey, please contact the Survey Team at Tara Clements, [email protected]. If you need technical assistance with the survey or other questions, please contact [email protected].

Your input is extremely valuable and will help the overall organizational culture at PEO EIS. Thank you for your participation and honest feedback.

Your Voice is Our Future!
