Employee Engagement Survey Results!

Posted on Thursday, February 27th, 2020

Close to 200 employees attended Wednesday’s Town Hall while many more watched via livestream at the Perth and Pembroke campuses to learn the results of the 2019 Employee Engagement Survey.

Highlights from his presentation include:

  • One of the things employees like most about working at Algonquin College is the people.
  • People are more engaged with their jobs than with their departments and the organization, with the exception of Support Staff. Of the three employee groups, Support Staff are the most highly engaged with the organization.
  • Overall score for engagement is 68. 3 per cent, which according to Yardley, “is something to be proud of.”
  • Co-worker relations are very strong.

Areas for improvement include:

  • Training Opportunities – organizational level
  • Hiring Practices – organizational level.


“I can tell you, Algonquin College people have an opinion. They’re not sitting in neutral,” said Yardley as he wrapped up his presentation. Judging by the laugher from those in attendance, it was an accurate statement.

For anyone who could not attend the Town Hall, you can view the live stream online at www.algonquincollege.com/live

The complete survey results are available on the employee engagement website.
