The Quality of Life Survey was announced to the MIT community by President Charles M. Vest in October 2001. The survey’s purpose was to investigate the factors that contribute to quality of life for faculty and staff at MIT, and the implications for the future of MIT. Quality of life was defined as the ability to integrate a fulfilling and productive work life with a fulfilling personal and/or family life. During the spring and summer of 2001, the survey instrument was developed, with different versions for faculty, campus staff, and Lincoln Laboratory staff. All faculty and staff working half-time or more were invited to participate in the survey, which was conducted during October and November 2001. Completed surveys were received from 33% of the faculty, 30% of the campus staff, and 40% of the Lincoln Laboratory staff. The data were analyzed by an external contractor, WFD Consulting, Inc., and the results were reported to the Council on Family and Work in a summarized form so that the confidentiality of all respondents was preserved. This report contains a summary and analysis of the results of the Staff Quality of Life Survey, as well as the recommendations formulated by the Council on Family and Work after considering these findings.
