The morale among National Park Service (NPS) employees ranks well below that of other Interior Department workers and federal employees generally, according to the latest Federal Employee Viewpoint Survey results posted Dec. 19 by Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility (PEER).
According to the report, park service staff gave the lowest marks to their own senior agency leadership, with significant percentages expressing concern about excessive workload, threats to their physical safety and profound professional disempowerment.
