Newsroom Survey
Dear Respondent,

Thank you for taking this survey, it is designed to help discover the best media organization to work for using your assessment of your organisation's ability to satisfy needs that have been classified according to the parameters below:

- Physiological needs
- Safety needs
- Belonging
- Esteem
- Self Actualization
- Policies
- Welfare

These parameters are built into every section of the questionnaire and will serve as a guide to accessing the individual's relationship with the organization, their colleagues and the environment in which all parties operate.

At the end of it, the best newsrooms to work for will be ranked based on your responses and will be awarded accordingly.

This first-of-its-kind approach to recognizing and celebrating excellence in the media industry based on the staff's perception of the organization rather than just the products of their work is important especially in view of increased advocacy for better welfare for journalists.

This will take less than 5 minutes.

Thank you!
