What specific activities are forbidden for Job Corps contractors attempting to encourage survey participation?
Job Corps staff should observe the following restrictions: (1) Do not link the receipt of any payments, awards, or benefits to the conduct or result of the survey. Students must not be denied any payments, awards, or benefits for which they are otherwise eligible through actions by others intended to dissuade them from completing the survey. (2) Do not inform students that they should not participate in the survey unless they are employed or in school. This is professionally unethical, and leads to invalid measures of program performance. (3) Do not coach students how they should respond or tell students what to say so that they will be considered to have a qualified job placement or educational placement. (4) Do not listen in on the phone while the student takes a confidential survey. If participants call the survey line from an office of a Job Corps service provider (e.g., Center, CTS contractor), all staff should leave the room so that the participant can answer the survey in privat
