Abstract
This work provides a guide for researchers and practitioners to develop and administer surveys within the context of chemical health and safety research. It discusses the challenges and key factors in developing health and safety surveys, focusing on evidencing validity and reliability in the field of psychometrics. The discussion encompasses survey design, question construction, ethical data collection, and the use of pilot studies for testing. The paper highlights the importance of adhering to the Standards for survey evaluation, advocating for the validity and reliability of survey data akin to accuracy and precision in benchtop applications. This work seeks to enhance the robustness of survey data, thereby reinforcing the foundation upon which chemical health and safety research can advance.
