Interview Guide: Information System
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 your experience working with data. We will be focusing a lot on data you use currently or have used in the past. If we need to go “off script,” and discuss an issue I am not asking about or 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 any other information that could identify you for this recording. 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.
