INDIVIDUAL AGREEMENT TO BE A RESEARCH SUBJECT
OMB CONTROL NUMBER: 1205-0453
INTRODUCTION/PURPOSE
You are invited to participate in this survey for the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health and the
Department of Labor because you are currently working on a farm. The purpose of the survey is to learn more
about the living conditions and health of farm workers.
PROCEDURES TO BE FOLLOWED
You will be asked to answer some questions about your work history and about your health. The interview will
last approximately 60 minutes.
RISKS
Since we will only be asking you questions, there is very little risk to you as a result of being in the survey. You
may refuse to answer any question at any time, with no penalty.
BENEFITS
There are no direct benefits to you from being in the survey. But, knowledge gained through this research may
help us learn how to prevent any harmful effects of farm work for workers like you.
PRIVACY
Your answers to the interview will be kept private to the extent allowed by law. This means that the interview
record will be kept in a locked file, and only researchers on the survey will be allowed to see it. Your name will
not appear on any reports about the survey. (See back of page for details.)
ALTERNATIVES TO PARTICIPATION
Participating in this survey is voluntary and you can quit at any time. You can also choose not to participate in
any part of the interview at any time, with no penalty. Whether or not you participate in this survey will not
affect benefits and services to which you are normally entitled. You will be paid for the time you are spending
in this interview. However, if you choose not to participate in sections of the interview you may not receive the
full payment. At any time, you may ask the researchers to explain any part of the survey.
WHO TO CALL WITH QUESTIONS
If you have questions about the research survey, including questions about your rights as a research subject,
you may call Aguirre International (toll free) at 877- SAY-NAWS (or 877-729-6297). They will refer your
questions to Daniel Carroll at the Department of Labor, at (202) 693-2795.
I have read and understand the statement above. My questions about any unclear or confusing statements
have been answered clearly. I agree to participate in this survey as a research subject. I admit that I have
received a copy of this form and $20 for my participation.

them.

collection of information displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget control
number. Public reporting burden for this collection of information, which is voluntary, is
estimated to average 1 hour (or 60 minutes) per response, including the time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and
