The International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) proposes to continue its worker health and safety training program to train workers and community partners in order to prevent work- related harm and improve worker-related health and safety. The built environment has become more complex due to increased population growth, aging infrastructure, and increased use of complex chemicals in commercial products and manufacturing processes (Williams, 2016). Whether responding to a residential structure fire or a chemical industrial plant, responders have the potential to encounter hazardous materials at almost every incident. Yet, in a recent survey, less than half of the respondents stated they felt “adequately prepared” for HazMat incidents and 70% stated that HazMat training was their greatest need (Pike, 2018). Responders also face other emerging issues including occupational cancer risks, behavioral health issues, and greater need for individual and community resilience. The IAFF is committed to addressing these issues through training and education of all of those who may respond to, or be impacted by, HazMat emergencies. In alignment with the NIEHS’s strategic plan, the IAFF seeks opportunities to collaborate with organizations that share the common goal of protecting workers and their communities. Through this grant funding, the IAFF will deliver specialty courses including HazMat Technician, Confined Space Rescue, Frontline Safety, Peer Support Training, Resiliency Training, Disaster Response Peer Support Training, Safety Planning Intervention for Suicide Prevention Training and Community HazMat Education. Through this continued cooperative agreement, the IAFF will: 1. Utilize advanced GIS and collaborative contact databases to identify and coordinate outreach to target populations, giving consideration to increasing diversity and training of underserved populations. 2. Integrate new technologies (such as electronic tablets, an IAFF online library of tools and resources, mobile hotpots, web-based applications, etc.) for course delivery, ensuring consistent, engaging deployment to all students while also improving access to technology across all populations. 3. Employ multiple robust quality assurance protocols to provide defined benchmarks, measure training effectiveness, and implement program improvements as needed. The IAFF is dedicated to ensuring the training program meets and exceeds the NIEHS Minimum Training Criteria Document.

国际消防员协会(IAFF)建议继续其工人健康和 安全培训计划，培训工人和社区合作伙伴，以防止工作- 相关危害和改善与工人相关的健康和安全。建成的环境已经成为 由于人口增长增加、基础设施老化和使用更多的 商业产品和制造过程中的复杂化学品(Williams，2016)。 无论是应对住宅建筑火灾还是化工厂，响应者 几乎在每一次事故中都有可能遇到危险物质。然而，在最近的一次 调查显示，不到一半的受访者表示，他们认为自己对危险物质做了充分的准备 70%的人表示，危险物质培训是他们最大的需求(Pike，2018年)。应答者 还面临其他新出现的问题，包括职业癌风险、行为健康问题、 以及对个人和社区韧性的更大需求。IAFF致力于解决 通过培训和教育所有可能对这些问题作出反应或受到影响的人来解决这些问题 由，危险物质紧急情况。为了与NIEHS的战略计划保持一致，IAFF寻求 与拥有共同保护目标的组织协作的机会 工人和他们的社区。通过这笔赠款资金，IAFF将提供专业知识 课程包括危险物质技术员、密闭空间救援、前线安全、同伴支持 培训、应变能力培训、灾难应对同行支持培训、安全规划 自杀预防培训和社区危险物品教育的干预。 通过这项持续的合作协议，国际森林论坛将： 1.利用先进的地理信息系统和协作联系人数据库来识别和协调 面向目标人群，考虑到增加多样性和培训 未得到充分服务的人群。 2.整合新技术(如电子平板电脑、IAFF在线工具库和 资源、移动火锅、基于Web的应用程序等)对于课程的交付，确保 为所有学生提供一致的参与式部署，同时改善访问 技术跨越所有人群。 3.采用多个稳健的质量保证协议来提供定义的基准， 评估培训效果，并根据需要实施计划改进。这个 IAFF致力于确保培训计划达到并超过NIEHS 最低培训标准文档。
