The NIH Workplace Civility and Equity Survey (CES) provides the opportunity to confidentially share your experiences with workplace harassment and discrimination over the past 12 months. Your responses are valuable regardless of whether you’ve experienced harassment or discrimination. We want to hear from everyone!

The results of the survey will help inform strategies toward an inclusive, diverse, and harassment-free NIH workplace.

Confidentiality
To support this survey, Westat, a research firm in Rockville, MD, has been contracted by NIH to distribute the survey, collect responses, and present aggregated survey responses back to NIH. Your responses will be given an anonymous code that will prevent them from being linked to your name, email address or other personal information. Therefore, NIH does not have access to any individuals’ raw data.
