ADOH'S 2018 EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT RATE EXCEEDS OUTSTANDING ORGANIZATION LEVEL

We are pleased to report that the Arizona Department of Housing’s 2018 Employee Engagement Rate came in at 11.5 to 1, with 100 percent employee participation. For those unfamiliar with the analysis, an employee engagement rate is a ratio comparison of the number of engaged employees to every disengaged employee (so for example, for every one disengaged employee, ADOH has 11.5 employees who indicated by their responses to the 2018 survey that they are engaged in their work.) An engagement rate of 9.0 to 1 is understood to be the employee engagement rate for Outstanding or World Class Organizations.

Every year the Arizona Department of Administration (ADOA) conducts a statewide survey of all State employees to assess the overall engagement rate of its employee base, as well as the engagement rate on an agency-by-agency basis. To provide further perspective to ADOH’s rate, the employee engagement rate for all employees of the State of Arizona is 2.4 to 1.

The bottom line is that it is gratifying to know that the agency’s employees are so highly engaged in the work and mission of the Department – which translates into better customer service for the Department’s constituency.
