The Department of Human Resources (DHR) will be administering a pulse survey to King County employees from Oct. 28 to Nov. 14, 2025. This short survey is focused on employee communications and tracking progress on the recent Employee Engagement Survey that was conducted in March. The survey will also help to better understand the Engagement Survey question, “There is open and honest two-way communication at King County.”

We want to hear from you so we can learn what tools, channels, and information you use and need to do your job effectively and thrive in your King County career. We will use your responses to check and adjust our current communications strategy in an effort to continuously improve.

All Executive Branch employees (excluding Short-term Temporary positions) will receive a survey invitation email on Oct. 28 from Qualtrics with the subject “King County Employee Pulse Survey: Together We Thrive.”

We look forward to listening to and acting on your feedback so we can create a workplace culture where all King County employees can thrive. We will act on your responses and move forward together in alignment with our value, “We are one team.”
