Interview Guide: In-Vehicle Monitoring Systems Pilot Questionnaire

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health is partnering with community leaders in the Permian Basin to better understand what safety professionals need to know about motor vehicle safety to better protect oil and gas extraction workers.

During this interview I will be asking you questions about a questionnaire developed by NIOSH to better understand OSH professionals’ experiences implementing in-vehicle monitoring systems (IVMS) at their companies. If we need to go “off script,” and discuss an issue I don’t ask you about or we need to go into greater depth on a point, that is totally fine.

I will be recording this conversation. After we are done, I will transcribe the interview into a Microsoft Word document and delete the recording. The information you share today will be kept confidential. I do not intend to record your name or company name. If your name or any identifying information surfaces during our conversation, I will remove it from the transcribed document. Your participation is completely voluntary and you are free to end the interview at any point.

This questionnaire was developed for OSH professionals working with IVMS in oil and gas. We are interested in improving the questionnaire before we distribute it more widely. Please take up to 20 minutes reviewing the draft questionnaire. After 20 minutes, I will ask you questions about your impressions.
