Practise 4 Descriptive and process paragraphs

    There are any organisations that allow researchers to interview their employees run a risk. They may complain about the boss or about others workers. The danger is that the employees may feel obliged to give answers to the questions instead of their honest opinions, because they are afraid of that their bosses find out waht they really think. The reputation of the organisation may suffer. So, it is the duty of the researchers to ensure that this does not happen.
