Why have I received an invitation email from ORIMA Research? How did they get my details?
ORIMA Research has been contracted to support the delivery of the TSS Employee Survey. You have received an email from them (signed by your head of agency), because you have been listed as a current employee in a State Service agency, and your agency provided your contact details, so that you could be sent a personalised invitation email.
How is my privacy protected?
Survey information and material, including responses you give to questions, are maintained in line with the provisions of the Personal Information Protection Act 2004, and the State Service Act 2000. The collection statement which appears at the beginning of the survey provides more information.
How is the confidentiality of my responses maintained?
The survey does not ask for personal details such as your name or address. The survey is delivered by ORIMA Research, an independent social research company, who are responsible for collecting and processing survey responses on our behalf. Once you complete the survey, your email details are deleted.
Agencies do not receive individual survey responses. Survey results are provided as a summary of all responses at the agency or division level. This means that it is impossible to link any demographic information that you might provide (for example your age, gender, and if you have disability), to other answers you might provide about your workplace environment or culture.
Furthermore, if divisions or sections do not receive at least 10 responses, they will not receive a report. If this occurs, the responses of that division or section will be rolled up to the next level of reporting. For example, if your section does not get enough responses, your results will be rolled up into the division level of reporting. All responses will be reported at the agency level.
