Not yet rated

The NHS Staff Survey (NSS) is one of the largest workforce surveys in the world and has been conducted every year since 2003. The survey is a vital component in the NHS approach to employee listening, alongside theNational Quarterly Pulse Surveyand the monthlyPeople Pulse.

It provides an opportunity for organisations to continuously survey their staff in a consistent and systematic manner. This makes it possible to build up a picture of staff experience, compare and monitor change over time, and to identify variations between different staff groups. Obtaining feedback from staff, and taking account of their views and priorities, is vital for driving improvements in the NHS.

The results are primarily intended to be used by organisations to help review and improve staff experience. The Care Quality Commission use the results from the survey to monitor ongoing compliance with essential standards of quality and safety. The survey supports accountability of the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care to Parliament for delivery of the NHS Constitution.
