为了满足工作场所，特别是发达国家工作场所的各种健康需要，应扩大职业安全和健康（奥什健康）活动。本研究的目的是开发一个新的多维度行动清单，可以帮助雇主和工人了解广泛的奥什活动，并促进中小企业参与奥什。在一次焦点小组会议上，我们与奥什专家讨论了新行动清单的总体结构和具体项目，会议的基础是文献综述和我们以前与公司雇主和工人的访谈结果。为了确保实用性和有效性，举行了几次会议，征求公司成员的意见，并因此进行了修改。最终制定了新的多维行动清单，包括6个核心领域、9个技术领域和61个基本项目。每个项目都与我们与行动清单同时编制的信息指南中的适当部分相联系。结合使用行动清单和信息指南将提供易于理解的信息和实际支持。利用这一新制定的行动清单进行干预研究，将澄清中小企业奥什新办法的有效性。
To meet diversified health needs in workplaces, especially in developed countries, occupational safety and health (OSH) activities should be extended. The objective of this study is to develop a new multi-dimensional action checklist that can support employers and workers in understanding a wide range of OSH activities and to promote participation in OSH in small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The general structure of and specific items in the new action checklist were discussed in a focus group meeting with OSH specialists based upon the results of a literature review and our previous interviews with company employers and workers. To assure practicality and validity, several sessions were held to elicit the opinions of company members and, as a result, modifications were made. The new multi-dimensional action checklist was finally formulated consisting of 6 core areas, 9 technical areas, and 61 essential items. Each item was linked to a suitable section in the information guidebook that we developed concomitantly with the action checklist. Combined usage of the action checklist with the information guidebook would provide easily comprehended information and practical support. Intervention studies using this newly developed action checklist will clarify the effectiveness of the new approach to OSH in SMEs.
