High marks for the Riksbank as a workplace
Date

Riksbank employees are happy with their work situation and proud to work at the bank. This is revealed in the latest employee survey.
The majority state that they feel motivated and committed to their work and they consider the Riksbank to be a workplace with a good discussion climate. There is a high level of confidence in line managers and in Governor Stefan Ingves and other Executive Board members.
The areas that employees consider could improve include the possibility for recovery and distribution of labour within the divisions, and they do not always feel their own competence is fully utilised.
Very good results
The total results of the employee survey are on the whole very high, although it is possible to discern a small decline in relation to the previous survey in 2013. The number of employees responding to the survey was also record-high; a good 96 per cent.
"It is positive that so many people have taken the time to express their views on their work situation and to suggest possible improvements. Now the challenge is to work on the areas that require improvement so that the Riksbank continues to develop and to be a workplace where the employees are happy," says HR Manager Christina Jacobsson.
About the survey
The Riksbank conducts an employee survey every other year to identify areas for improvement in the work environment.. The 2015 employee survey was carried out in the form of a web-based questionnaire in the period 2-18 March. The survey was conducted by CMA Research.
