+
+      ```ruby
+      class SomeWorker
+        def perform
+          # Check if the experiment is enabled at all (the percentage_of_time_value > 0)

+
+          # Since we cannot access cookies in a worker, we need to bucket models based on a unique, unchanging attribute instead.
+          # Use the following method to check if the experiment is enabled for a certain attribute, for example a username or email address:
+          if Gitlab::Experimentation.enabled_for_attribute?(:experiment_key, some_attribute)
+            # execute experimental code
