Complete the Employee Benefits Preferences by January 4, 2019 and Shape Future Benefits Offerings!
December 28, 2018
The deadline to complete the Employee Benefits Preferences Survey has been extended to January 4, 2019. The survey is a key part of the UW Title and Total Compensation (TTC) Project. UW Human Resources is partnering with Mercer Consulting to conduct the survey.
Beginning November 26, Mercer sent all benefits-eligible UW employees an email with a personalized link to the survey and instructions for completing it. The email subject line was \"UW Employee Benefits Preferences Survey,†and the email was sent from the email address universityofwisconsin@mercer.com. Employees who did not complete the survey initially received multiple reminder emails
Employees have the opportunity to complete the survey confidentially, and will be asked about their satisfaction with the benefits that mattered most to them when they began employment with UW, existing benefits (health insurance, vacation time, etc.), and what matters most to them now. Please answer all questions, even if a particular benefit like childcare or tuition reimbursement is not currently offered at your institution.
Your perspective is important!
The purpose of the survey is to gather feedback regarding the benefits our employees value and to design a competitive benefits offering that will serve the diverse and changing needs of UW employees to attract and retain top talent. There is no intent to reduce or eliminate any existing employee benefits, but rather to better understand your preferences for and perspectives on current benefits and get your ideas about any desired offerings.
Results: Summary shared in 2019
A summary of the survey results will be shared in 2019 and will provide UW with a clear sense of which benefits are most valuable to faculty and staff and how satisfied those groups are with the current benefits package.
Time is Running Out!
The Employee Benefits Preferences Survey is an important opportunity for employees to engage and have their voices heard on whether UW’s current benefits program is meeting their needs, and to suggest their level of interest in possible additions and/or changes. You can find more information about the Title and Total Compensation Project at the UW System and UW-Madison TTC websites.
