Survey response rates

THE level of response for the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Behavioural Baseline Research survey was among the highest of any recent survey within Defence.

It’s a promising sign, says Director General OHSC Branch Steve Grzeskowiak, that Defence members are keenly interested in health and safety issues.

“In some cases, we may have sent 30 questionnaires to a particular unit and got 45 answers back. Now that tells you that people out there are interested,” he says.

Response rates for the three Services were:

Navy – 67 per cent;
Army – 98 per cent; and
Air Force – 67 per cent.
