Survey of specialty and associate specialist (SAS) and locally employed (LE) doctors

SAS and LE doctors make a hugely valuable contribution to UK health services, and the number of doctors choosing to work in these roles is increasing.

To help widen our understanding of their workplace experiences, we ran a survey dedicated to gathering their views. This took place between May and June of 2019, and we encouraged doctors from across the UK to take part.

You can read about the initial findings and check the results for individual questions by reading our initial findings report and using our online reporting tool. For a more in-depth examination of the data see our clustering analysis report.
