Workforce Employee Experience Tool
October 27, 2026 | Brianna Gorman, Omar Khalid
This report serves as a guide and aspirational framework for addressing public health workforce priorities in state health agencies through the lens of employee experience. Employee experience refers to how work feels day to day — shaped by agency policies, leadership, systems, and workplace culture. In this tool, employee experience includes well-being, engagement, support, and retention, and focuses on changes agencies can make to improve the conditions in which employees work rather than focusing exclusively on recommendations to employees on how to care for themselves. Learn how you can better support your health agency workforce by checking out the full report.
