Departmental Office of Human Resource Management

2008 Federal Human Capital Survey

Overview

The Office Personnel Management administered the 2008 Federal Human Capital Survey (FHCS) to DOT employees between August 1 and September 26, 2008. A random sample of 11,527 DOT employees was asked to respond to the survey, while 6,354 employees actually participated in the survey, for a response rate of 55.1%. The survey is designed to gauge employees’ perceptions of workforce conditions and management practices as measured by positive response rates to a series of 74 survey questions.

We are pleased to report that the survey results indicate that we have maintained positive results in several areas that are important to DOT employees. While we are proud of the progress we have made, we still have some areas that need additional focus and will continue our efforts to make DOT one of the best places to work in the Federal government.
