PHIG Support Helps Vermont Department of Health Leverage Data to Improve Employee Well-Being and Satisfaction

With PHIG support, the Vermont Department of Health's (VDH) Workforce Development Director and Evaluation Director analyzed, summarized, and visualized the Vermont Department of Human Resources Employee Engagement Survey results. They created clear, department-specific reports and presentations highlighting VDH’s results within the broader statewide data. This marks the first time since the survey’s launch in 2014 that VDH could conduct this level of analysis and reporting, ensuring that the results are widely understood and applicable. This work aligns with the first goal in the department’s 2024-2029 Strategic Plan: to foster an inclusive workplace culture that promotes employee well-being and satisfaction. The findings from this analysis will inform the development of future measures for progress.
