Description

NIOSH has established state surveillance programs broadly intended to: (1) Assess the extent and severity of workplace illnesses, injuries, exposures, and fatalities; (2) Identify workers and occupations at greatest risk; (3) Establish priorities for follow-up activities, such as more in-depth data surveillance and outreach, prevention and/ or intervention programs, and developing policies to address state priorities and emerging issues; (4) Develop a broad network of partners who can assist in identifying and interpreting occupational safety and health (OSH) surveillance data and disseminating results to stakeholders; (5) Communicate audience-specific educational materials and other resources for optimizing their uptake and adoption for protecting workers; (6) Measure the effectiveness of prevention activities; and (7) Fill gaps in federal and national OSH surveillance data. OSH surveillance may include population/group- and case-based approaches and activities. Funded programs are expected to be resourceful and proactive in identifying and accessing data sources for OSH surveillance, which may include adding or developing occupation data within public health data systems, creating linkages between data sources, or developing new methods for OSH surveillance. Through this funding announcement, NIOSH seeks to continue and strengthen OSH surveillance programs within states and other eligible jurisdictions to provide information that will help drive actions to improve the health and safety of workers in the US. This program will build upon existing public health practice, capacity, and expertise in OSH surveillance. For states and others where OSH surveillance capacity does not currently exist, this program may help to develop that capacity.
