Goal 5. Student, staff, faculty and administrative employees have satisfaction in their work in CNRS
Objective 5.1 Administrators, faculty, staff, and students contribute to a culture of mutual respect
| Performance Indicator | Baseline | Action Item |
|---|---|---|
| Consistent evaluation processes are followed at all levels | Approximately 85% compliance with all processes. | Improve compliance to 100% |
| Shared governance includes representation from all stakeholders | The CNRS administrative handbook provides a structure for shared governance with the CNRS. | Review the CNRS administrative handbook annually and ensure the guidelines therein are implemented. |
| Number of grievances and similar reports of disrespectful behavior decrease | The CNRS has not gathered this information. | Design and implement a tracking system to measure grievances and related incidents. |
Objective 5.2 Review and update position descriptions, performance expectations, and RTP criteria periodically
| Performance Indicator | Baseline | Action Item |
|---|---|---|
| RTP guidelines for academic departments are current | All departments have approved RTP guidelines. | Periodically review and calibrate RTP guidelines. |
| Workload is evaluated for consistency with classifications and position descriptions | Workload evaluation is carefully evaluated prior to the reappointment of new staff and faculty, but not always after several years into the appointment. | Conduct periodic workload evaluations for faculty and staff, to bring greater equity across the college and alignment with reasonable expectations. |
Objective 5.3 Receive and respond to issues and concerns of faculty and staff
| Performance Indicator | Baseline | Action Item |
|---|---|---|
| Faculty and staff have opportunity to report their level of satisfaction (survey) and express issues and concerns | CNRS relies on ad hoc measures for expressing issues and concern through department chairs, union representatives, and the dean’s office. | Design and implement an annual employee satisfaction survey that allows for individual issues and concerns to be addressed. |
| An issues website is updated monthly for faculty and for staff | CNRS has not publicly communicated its efforts to resolve issues. | Do this. |
