2001 Defence Attitude Survey Report
Abstract
Following the formation of the Defense Personnel Executive (DPE), HDPE directed that a common Defense attitude survey should be developed. The aim of the survey was to replace the existing single Service attitude surveys. The amalgamation of these surveys has facilitated comparison and benchmarking of attitudes across the three Services whilst maintaining a measure of single Service attitudes. The Directorate of Strategic Personnel Planning and Research (DSPPR) was tasked by HDPE with the development of the first common attitude survey instrument in 1998. This survey was sent to approximately 20% of uniformed and civilian personnel in July-August 1999. DSPPR was directed to re-administer the Defense Attitude Survey in 2001 and the administration took place in March/April. The survey was administered to approximately 30% of uniformed and civilian personnel. The aims of the Defense Attitude Survey are to: inform personnel policy and planning; both centrally and for the single Services/Australian Public Service (APS); provide Defense Groups with a picture of organizational climate; and, provide ongoing measurement in relation to the Defense Matters scorecard.
