Employee Guarantor Requirement Experience Survey

Thanks for taking a few minutes to share your experience with our guarantor requirement — the process for finding someone to vouch for you for things like salary advances, equipment custody, or your employment contract. Your responses are completely confidential and anonymized. This takes about 8 minutes and your honest feedback helps us improve the process.

Overall, how would you rate your experience with the guarantor process?

If we were to change how guarantee is handled, rank these alternatives from most to least preferred.

1. Keep the current guarantor system
2. Contract-based indemnity (no external guarantor needed)
3. Employer-arranged insurance or bond
4. Refundable salary deduction agreement
5. Digital reference/background verification instead of a named guarantor

Reconstruct exactly what happened the last time this employee had to provide a guarantor: what was required, how long it took, who they approached (and whether anyone declined), and where the process broke down or felt unfair. If they rated the experience poorly or difficulty finding a guarantor highly, dig into the specific obstacle (e.g., no qualifying family/colleague, distance, documentation) and what alternative arrangement would have solved it for them.
