Attachment G3: Recruitment Procedure/Script To Be Used At Truck Stop



One member of the three-person data collection team will serve as a recruiter. The recruiter will be responsible for verbally recruiting potential participants as they enter the truck stop as well as administering the eligibility screener and nonresponse questions should eligible drivers not wish to participate.


When recruiting potential participants, the recruiter will approach individuals and ask, “Good morning (afternoon, etc.), are you a truck driver? I’m recruiting drivers to participate in a survey about health and safety issues. We are offering $25 to participants. Would you be interested?”


If the individual seems interested in participating, the recruiter will use conversational dialog to help transition into the administration of the screener (Appendix 2). This dialog will include phrases:

“We will ask about your work, your health, and your work-related injuries. The interview will last about 45 minutes, plus about 5 minutes to take some body measurements. This survey is being conducted by Westat, on behalf of the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, otherwise known as NIOSH. NIOSH improves worker safety and health through research and education. NIOSH does NOT enforce any laws. You will not receive any direct benefit from being in this survey. However, your honest answers may increase our knowledge of the health and safety issues facing long-haul truck drivers. There is very little risk to you if you take part in this survey. We will not collect your name or any other data that can identify you. All data we collect will be protected as required by Federal Law.


I need to ask you just a few questions about your work as a truck driver to make sure that you are eligible for our study.”
