Or it's for them to maintain a directory of skills in order to tender for new work (if it's a consultancy or similar). Either way you probably shouldn't be on *that* list.

so to do that they send links with lots of questions in to improve employee engagement - or just piss the few hardworking ones of with more work while the majority use it as an excuse for delivering late.

Are they anonymous surveys?
Is there any scope for adding comments, "handy for permies but not really suitable for third parties like myself" etc

My opinion - fill them in.
If you kick off and refuse you end up looking like you think your something special. Clients don't like this.
Unless its a BIG IR35 thing go with the flow.
