Staff Exit Survey Privacy Notice

The purpose of processing

The purpose of this questionnaire is to ask a range of questions about your experience of working for Bath & North East Somerset Council and your reasons for leaving.

We will use the information that you provide to help us understand why employees leave the Council and help identify areas where we might need to make improvements.

Participation in the survey is entirely voluntary and respondents can choose to skip any question.

The information below will help you to understand what we will do with the personal information that you provide during your exit interview.

Please take a moment to read this and if you have any questions raise them with the team at Bathnes using the address at the bottom.

Data subjects

Current and former members of staff in Bath and North East Somerset Council.

Personal data

We do not seek any personal data as part of this survey, but you may have inadvertently provided some. As such, we are unable to say what you may have provided.

How is it used?

The questionnaire will be administered using Microsoft Forms.

Data that you provide will be downloaded and processed by named members of the HR team and stored in a secure folder also accessed by the Business Intelligence team. The published results will fully anonymise responses by applying a process called suppression. This is where responses which relate to less than 5 people will be masked by adjusting applicable fields without altering the overall statistical results.

If you are raising a specific point that the HR team considers the need for further investigation, then it will be transferred to the relevant department for further investigation.
