Question to the Home Office:

To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, whether she has commissioned a well-being survey of officials in her Department.

The wellbeing of civil servants is surveyed annually as part of the Civil Service People Survey.

In 2021 and 2022, civil servants were also independently surveyed by the mental health charity as part of our application for the MIND Employer Index Awards.

The Home Office actively promotes the services provided by the Charity For Civil Servants (CFCS) as an external support option to compliment the internal services of the Employee Assistance Program (EAP). CFCS offer a range of mental health, financial and legal services, information and advice to all civil servants at no cost to the individual.
