DESCRIPTION: (Provided by applicant): Maryland is reestablishing a foundation for occupational disease surveillance within the Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DHMH). This proposal would create the Maryland Occupational Safety and Health Surveillance Project (OHSSP). The project would strengthen current occupational disease reporting requirements, and promote occupational disease surveillance as an integral component of a comprehensive occupational and environmental health surveillance program within DHMH. The specific aims of this proposal are to: (1) Create a permanent occupational disease surveillance structure within DHMH, that will actively promote occupational health and safety surveillance generally and within targeted occupational sectors of the State; (2) Strengthen the pre-existing relationships of the occupational disease surveillance system with the State's asthma control program, cancer control program, and environmental public health tracking (EPHT) program; (3) Integrate activities within DHMH, the Maryland Department of Environment, the Maryland Occupational Safety and Health program, and local health departments that address indoor air quality programs in workplaces; and (4) Link occupational disease surveillance activities with ongoing occupational disease prevention efforts of MOSH and the State. The project makes innovative use of a new environmental public health tracking infrastructure to integrate environmental and occupational disease surveillance within the DHMH Center for Environmental Health Coordination, creating opportunities for close collaboration and the use of new geographic information systems resources in occupational health.

产品说明：（申请人提供）：马里兰州正在健康和心理卫生部（DHMH）内重建职业病监测基础。该提案将创建马里兰州职业安全和健康监测项目（OHSSP）。该项目将加强目前的职业病报告要求，并促进职业病监测，将其作为卫生部内综合职业和环境健康监测方案的一个组成部分。该提案的具体目标是：（1）在卫生部内建立一个永久性职业病监测结构，积极促进全国和国家目标职业部门的职业健康和安全监测;（2）加强职业病监测系统与国家哮喘控制方案、癌症控制方案、（3）整合DHMH、马里兰州环境部、马里兰州职业安全和健康计划以及解决工作场所室内空气质量计划的地方卫生部门内的活动;（4）将职业病监测活动与卫生部和国家正在进行的职业病预防工作联系起来。该项目创新性地使用了一个新的环境公共卫生跟踪基础设施，将环境和职业病监测纳入DHMH环境卫生协调中心，为密切合作和使用新的地理信息系统资源创造了机会。
