Staff Census

Findings from Vanderbilt University’s fall 2022 staff census provide a more complete understanding of the range of diversity among university staff. View a one-page PDF of the staff census information  for more details .    

 

The census is a priority initiative of the university’s Future of Work committee, which has brought staff together from across the university to develop strategies to recruit and retain outstanding staff members and help them reach their full potential as employees. Other Future of Work projects so far include expanded paid parental leave and university-wide exit surveys.

The census is divided into two parts, with participants first being asked to confirm and supplement existing demographic data, and then to answer additional questions in a voluntary and anonymous supplementary survey. The anonymous questions in the supplementary survey are not connected to staff members’ records in any way.
