DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Work-related Fatality Surveillance - The overall goal of this proposal is to reduce fatal occupational injuries in New Jersey. This will be accomplished through a series of aims and objectives following four principal surveillance components: selected target condition, health data sources for case identification, a data center to collect and evaluate case data, and targeted intervention activities using case data. Major aims are to maintain the NJ Fatal Occupational Fatality Surveillance System through continued collaboration with established data sources, conduct field investigations of in-scope fatalities to identify risk factors and safety engineering issues, develop prevention recommendations and on-site interventions, conduct statistical analysis of the fatality database, and to conduct outreach and disseminate educational materials to targeted groups and individuals. A system that track fatal work-related injuries in New Jersey will allow to not only prevent these fatalities but also to reduce the number of workers who suffer severe non-fatal injuries that lead to temporary and long-term disability. This tracking system will also allow recognizing groups of workers that are more likely to suffer these injuries and develop special programs to help them. Work-related Pesticide/Chemical Poisoning Surveillance - The goal of this surveillance program will be to ascertain, evaluate, interpret, and disseminate information that will be used to develop efficacious interventions among worker populations exposed to these chemicals. Surveillance activities will focus on case identification, case confirmation, workplace evaluations, educational outreach, and program evaluation. Health data sources will be used for case identification followed by case confirmation. This information will be maintained in a centralized database for data analysis and intervention activities. Finally, this new program will be evaluated to determine if the objectives of the program have been met. A system to track work-related chemical poisonings is urgently needed in New Jersey to reduce the burden of disease among New Jersey workers due to the widespread use of large volumes of chemicals in New Jersey's industrial sector and the extent to which workers are exposed to these chemicals. Many of these chemicals are known to cause long and short-term health problems and this tracking system will help to prevent these chemical poisonings among workers.

描述（由申请人提供）：与工作有关的死亡监测-这项建议的总体目标是减少致命的职业伤害在新泽西。这将通过以下四个主要监测组成部分的一系列目标和目的来实现：选定的目标条件，用于病例识别的健康数据源，收集和评估病例数据的数据中心，以及使用病例数据的有针对性的干预活动。主要目标是通过与现有数据源的持续合作来维护新泽西州致命职业死亡监测系统，对范围内的死亡事故进行实地调查，以确定风险因素和安全工程问题，制定预防建议和现场干预措施，对死亡数据库进行统计分析，并向目标群体和个人进行宣传和传播教育材料。 在新泽西，一个跟踪致命工伤的系统不仅可以防止这些死亡，还可以减少遭受严重非致命伤害导致暂时和长期残疾的工人人数。该跟踪系统还将允许识别更有可能遭受这些伤害的工人群体，并制定特殊计划来帮助他们。 与工作有关的农药/化学品中毒监测-该监测项目的目标是确定、评估、解释和传播信息，这些信息将用于在接触这些化学品的工人群体中制定有效的干预措施。监测活动将侧重于病例识别、病例确认、工作场所评估、教育推广和方案评估。 健康数据源将用于病例识别，然后进行病例确认。这些信息将保存在一个中央数据库中，用于数据分析和干预活动。最后，将对这一新方案进行评估，以确定该方案的目标是否已经实现。 由于新泽西工业部门广泛使用大量化学品以及工人暴露于这些化学品的程度，新泽西迫切需要一个系统来跟踪与工作有关的化学品中毒，以减少新泽西工人的疾病负担。众所周知，这些化学品中有许多会导致长期和短期的健康问题，这一跟踪系统将有助于防止工人中的这些化学品中毒。
