Activity 2. Influences on the worker-researcher

It is my opinion that the relationship the worker has formed with their colleagues could cause a problem. Many friendships are formed in the workplace and it is from this that trust is built. It may be necessary as a worker- research to carry out research in an observational way without informing people you are working with. Depending on what you are researching and your findings you may find yourself in an awkward position.
Your findings may expose a colleague in a bad light and they may feel you have breached their trust initially by conducting the research and secondly by documenting the findings and exposing a friend.
