2020 Public Service Employee Survey

The 2020 Public Service Employee Survey (PSES) was administered by Advanis, on behalf of the Office of the Chief Human Resources Officer, Treasury Board of Canada. This comprehensive survey measured federal government employees’ opinions about their engagement, leadership, workforce, workplace, workplace well-being, compensation, diversity and inclusion, and the impacts of COVID-19. The 2020 Public Service Employee Survey was conducted from November 30, 2020 to January 29, 2021. A total of 188,786 employees in 87 federal departments and agencies responded to the 2020 Public Service Employee Survey, for a response rate of 61%. The 2020 Public Service Employee Survey datasets contain the results of the survey by year (2020, 2019 and 2018) for the Public Service and departments/agencies, and the results broken down by demographic characteristics (e.g., age, gender) and organizational units. Results for 2019 and 2018 are only provided for questions repeated in the 2020 Public Service Employee Survey.
