 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The southeast region occupational fatality rates are 37% higher than the US fatality rate. From 2008-2011, the overall southeastern occupational fatality rate was 4.8 deaths/100,000 workers compared to 3.5/100,000 for the overall US; rates were higher than overall US rates in 9 of the 12 southeastern states. The Southeastern States Occupational Health Network (SouthON) collaborative working meetings' goal over the next five years is to build on the foundation for regional occupational health surveillance (OHS) capacity and research in the 12-state Southeastern US region (Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia, and West Virginia) through: 1) establishment of southeast regional partnerships and collaborations among state health departments, academic partners, National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)- funded agricultural centers and education research centers (ERCs), agencies, organizations, and other stakeholders; 2) development of occupational injury and illness research hypotheses; 3) southeastern occupational injury and illness surveillance; 4) state and southeast regional OHS capacity optimization; and 5) translation of southeastern occupational injury and illness research into public health action and planning. Objectives of SouthON meetings are to 1) develop common priorities for OHS epidemiological analyses, and worksite interventions; 2) build partnerships with other occupational epidemiologists, NIOSH, academic colleagues, Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), worker organizations, and other OHS partners; 3) provide epidemiology and program planning tools for OHS capacity building; and 4) promote scientific collaboration among OHS partners in the Southeast region. NIOSH funds will support SouthON meeting participant travel and build on SouthON's mission of optimum OHS capacity and research in the southeastern region through: 1) enhanced regional scientific collaborations; 2) analysis of OHS data sets; 3) case referrals; and 4) capacity building. These proposed efforts will contribute to the NIOSH Cross-Sector Surveillance program area. They will also address the Occupational Health Disparities program area to the extent that SouthON targets enhanced capacity toward worker populations with the most urgent and significant needs.

 描述（申请人提供）：东南地区职业死亡率比美国高37%。 2008年至2011年，东南部地区总体职业死亡率为4.8人/10万工人，而美国整体职业死亡率为3.5人/10万工人；东南部 12 个州中有 9 个州的比率高于美国总体比率。东南部各州职业健康网络 (SouthON) 协作工作会议未来五年的目标是通过以下方式为美国东南部 12 个州（阿拉巴马州、阿肯色州、佛罗里达州、佐治亚州、肯塔基州、路易斯安那州、密西西比州、北卡罗来纳州、南卡罗来纳州、田纳西州、弗吉尼亚州和西弗吉尼亚州）的区域职业健康监测 (OHS) 能力和研究奠定基础：1) 在州卫生部门、学术伙伴、国家职业安全与健康研究所 (NIOSH) 资助的农业中心和教育研究中心 (ERC)、机构、组织和其他利益相关者之间建立东南地区伙伴关系和合作； 2）职业伤害和职业病研究假设的发展； 3）东南部职业伤害和职业病监测； 4）州及东南部地区OHS能力优化； 5) 将东南部职业伤害和疾病研究转化为公共卫生行动和规划。 SouthON 会议的目标是 1) 制定 OHS 流行病学分析和工作现场干预措施的共同优先事项； 2) 与其他职业流行病学家、NIOSH、学术同事、职业安全与健康管理局 (OSHA)、工人组织和其他 OHS 合作伙伴建立伙伴关系； 3) 为职业健康与安全能力建设提供流行病学和项目规划工具； 4) 促进东南地区 OHS 合作伙伴之间的科学合作。 NIOSH 资金将支持 SouthON 会议参与者的旅行，并通过以下方式加强 SouthON 在东南部地区优化 OHS 能力和研究的使命：1) 加强区域科学合作； 2）OHS数据集分析； 3）案件转介； 4）能力建设。这些拟议的工作将有助于 NIOSH 跨部门监测计划领域。他们还将解决职业健康差异计划领域的问题，以期 SouthON 的目标是增强满足最紧迫和最重大需求的工人群体的能力。
