About this file

This is a Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) interview questionnaire designed to assess working conditions and potential labor trafficking indicators among Third Country Nationals (TCNs) employed on federal contracts.

The questionnaire is organized into four assessment categories. The Recruitment section (questions 1a-1g) evaluates how candidates learned of the position, recruiter honesty regarding pay and hours, recruitment fees and associated costs, financial or legal consequences for non-payment, contract terms, motivation for accepting employment, and any pressure applied during recruitment. The Work section (questions 2a-2g) addresses whether the job met expectations, promised benefits received, actual versus expected hours and compensation, break schedules, supervisor relationships, socialization policies, and training on human rights and ethical conduct. The Pay section (questions 3a-3b) captures compensation amount and payment method, including any fees for check cashing or wire transfers. The Isolation section (questions 4a-4d) investigates whether workers retain control of personal funds and identification documents, access to host country government assistance, contract termination options and associated penalties, and contract renewal intentions. This tool enables CORs to identify potential forced labor, wage theft, document confiscation, and other labor trafficking indicators in compliance with federal contractor labor standards and anti-trafficking requirements.
