(Interviewer: ASK TO SPEAK TO INQUIRER NAME FROM FONE FILE:)

INTRO1

QID:120821 Hello, this is __________, from The Gallup Poll. We are calling on behalf of the Employee Benefits Security Administration or EBSA (say: E-B-S-A) of the U.S. Department of Labor. Our records indicate that you recently contacted EBSA concerning a pension or health benefits issue. We are conducting a very short poll about your interaction with this agency. It should take less than five minutes.

By law, I must inform you that the Paperwork Reduction Act requires Federal agencies to obtain Office of Management and Budget authorization before conducting any information collection, and persons are not required to respond to an information collection that is not currently approved. The Office of Management and Budget has authorized this survey for use through January 2016 under control number 1225-0059.

I want to assure you that Gallup and EBSA will protect your privacy. Your voluntary cooperation is requested to make the results of this study complete and accurate. Gallup will not share your individual responses with EBSA and your data will only be used in aggregate with responses of others like you.
