The Survey of Employee Engagement has been used by over 125 different
types of organizations and has reached hundreds of thousands of
employees. While the instrument does measure general organizational
characteristics, we recognize the special nature of work performed in the
institutional setting. TDCJ employees in the administrative positions
receive the standard Survey of Employee Engagement because their jobs are
similar to other organizations. For the employees at the Correctional
Institutions Division, the survey has been modified to reflect the nature of the setting and
the work that goes on at the units. Much of the survey is the same, but
some items and areas have been adjusted. For example, the safety concerns
of a correctional officer at a unit are different than those of
an office employee at parole.

The Survey is a leadership tool
used to build organizational effectiveness through a cost effective assessment
of human resources. The Survey
process enhances employee performance by actively engaging the workforce in a
continuous process of organizational improvement.
The use of employee feedback to surface relative strengths or areas of
concern is a well-established technique to promote organizational development
and a necessary element in strategic planning.
