EPFL survey assesses the well-being of its entire community
— EPFL conducted a survey of its community’s health and well-being in November 2022, with the goal of pinpointing needs in this area and developing practical measures to address them. The response rate was around 25%, and all segments of the community were represented in the sample. Just over half of the respondents reported at least one symptom of burnout, and performance-related pressure was cited as the main source of negative stress. Respondents also reported a worrying number of incidents of bullying/mobbing. EPFL has already identified a series of measures it will take in the short and medium term.
