Good morning Paul,

 

It is unclear what “release” of the 2024 Pulse Survey results you are
referring to below.  Could you please provide more context for this part
of your request?

 

With respect to the other part of your request, please confirm that you
are seeking a breakdown of the 2024 Pulse Survey results by the ranks
listed below, and separately the results for civilian staff.

 

Regards

Subject: Official Information request - Pulse Survey Results 2024

 

 

 

Dear New Zealand Defence Force,

 

The annual Pulse Survey was carried out in 2024. As of today, few have
seen the results which usually contain all the data aggregated into
combined results for the organization and broken down by service. I am
requesting that NZDF release those combined results formatted in a similar
manner to previous years, and also provide the following data:

 

1) Pulse results for the PTE(E)-CPL(E) rank bracket,

2) Pulse results for the SGT(E)-WO2(E) rank bracket,

3) Pulse results for the OCDT(E)-CAPT(E) rank bracket,

4) Pulse results for the MAJ(E) and above rank bracket, and

3) Pulse results for the CIVILIAN workforce.

 

The results must remain comprehensive with discrete detail maintained
(strongly disagree and strongly agree included as options).

 

Since the 2024 results haven't been released as they normally would for
reasons unknown. In the interests of transparency from a government
organization can you also share all emails or any other documents /
correspondence related to the reasons which would limit the distribution
of the Pulse survey results. If no documents exist, I request that the
final decision-maker make a statement providing the reasons why they made
the decision to to suppress the results. I am especially interested in
anything where the reasons stated are because HQNZDF was concerned at the
results being too negative by outlining high scores for "strongly
disagree".

 

Yours faithfully,

 

Paul

Dear Ministerial Services,

 

I will clarify what “release” of the 2024 Pulse Survey results. This means
that I am requesting that NZDF provides me with full unadulterated
pdf/Word document copies of the results of the Pulse Satisfaction Survey
for 2024. This would mean that in response to this request there is a copy
of the results of the latest Pulse satisfaction survey (2024), which
covers the full NZ Defence Force, A copy of the results broken down by the
three services (Navy, Army Air), and a breakdown of the 2024 Pulse Survey
results by the ranks listed, and separately the results for civilian
staff.

 

All other parts of the original request for information remain i.e. any
communications that indicate a need to suppress the results.

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Paul
