Demographic-based questions
The Commission uses strict rules to protect the privacy and anonymity of respondents at every stage of the survey.
We don’t release employee opinion results for demographic groups where industries have less than 30 total responses.
We included a ‘prefer not to say’ option for some demographic questions.
Respondents may choose ‘prefer not to say’ for a range of reasons.
