The employee experience is about listening, learning and doing our part in equipping each other to do our best work.
The City of Edmonton is committed to creating and sustaining a positive employee experience.
Surveys are one of the ways we receive feedback from our employees. They allow leaders to apply the engagement principles of listen, learn and lead to further enhance our workplace.
