Hello:

You are invited to participate in my survey on offshoring white collar jobs out of the UK. Your responses will form the basis of the primary research for my final year project .

In this survey, approximately 100 people will be asked to complete a survey that asks questions about their opinions on the idea of offshoring, and it's impact to the UK workforce.. It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete the questionnaire.


Your participation in this study is completely voluntary. There are no foreseeable risks associated with this project. However, if you feel uncomfortable answering any questions, you can withdraw from the survey at any point. It is very important for me to learn your opinions.


Your survey responses will be stricly confidential and data from this research will be reported only in the aggregate. Your information will be coded and will remain confidential. If you have questions at any time about the survey or the procedures, you may contact Ricky Lakhani by email at [email protected].
