PROJECT SUMMARY This is a competing renewal application for the North Carolina Occupational Safety and Health Education and Research Center (NC OSHERC). Our unique Center builds upon the strengths of the occupational health and safety (OHS) education and research programs at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Duke University, and North Carolina State University. Nearly 62% of US adults are employed, and work exerts an independent, powerful influence on their health and safety. As we conducted needs and strengths assessments in preparation for this Center proposal, we saw how the COVID- 19 pandemic created a massive re-shaping of work, work conditions, and worker health, particularly related to safety, mental health, and well-being among essential and underserved workers. This observation has strengthened our joint efforts with both our regional Education and Research Center colleagues and other OHS partners to serve the emerging needs of occupational health professionals and the diverse workforce. The guiding mission of the NC OSHERC is to provide high- quality education and research training in the OHS sciences for the protection and promotion of worker health and well- being and to prevent occupational illness and injury in North Carolina, the southeast region, and the nation. To fulfill this mission, our goals are to (1) train future leaders to meet the nation’s OHS research needs and NIOSH priority goals and (2) bridge the gap between the innovative research being conducted in OHS within the regional universities and the needs of the region’s workforce. We will accomplish these goals through interdisciplinary OHS training, research, and service. The proposed education and research program’s specific aims are to: 1. Train practitioners, educators, and researchers in the academic disciplines of occupational exposure science and industrial hygiene, occupational medicine, safety and ergonomics, occupational epidemiology, and Total Worker Healthâ, with a specific focus given to training diverse, underrepresented, and minority practitioners and researchers. 2. Provide interdisciplinary learning experiences through coursework, practice and field projects, research activities, and seminars. Academic training and targeted research training programs guide trainees to develop skills in scientific inquiry and research to practice (r2p) to mitigate and eliminate hazards and improve working conditions. 3. Provide outreach and continuing education training programs to meet the needs of practitioners and OHS stakeholders. 4. Fund pilot research projects to support the development of young investigators and advance OHS science. The NC OSHERC is uniquely positioned to increase capacity and address the future challenges of OHS training, research, and preparedness in the Southeast and the nation by training diverse OHS practitioners and professionals in the challenging interdisciplinary OHS field and by fostering greater collaboration between academic researchers, local, state, and federal occupational professionals, as well as business and industry sector stakeholders. The NC OSHERC’s overall program responds to mandates in the OSHA Act, section 2(b)(5) and addresses the National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) 2019 – 2024 priorities and critically important OHS issues in the NORA sector and cross-sector areas.

项目总结 这是北卡罗来纳州职业安全和健康教育与研究的竞争续签申请 中心(NC OSHERC)。我们独特的中心建立在职业健康和安全(OHS)教育的优势之上 北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校、杜克大学和北卡罗来纳州立大学的研究项目 大学。近62%的美国成年人有工作，工作对他们的健康和 安全。在我们进行需求和优势评估以准备此中心提案时，我们看到了COVID如何- 19大流行对工作、工作条件和工人健康产生了巨大的重塑，特别是在安全、精神和健康方面 基本工人和未得到充分服务的工人的健康和福祉。这一观察结果加强了我们与 我们的地区教育和研究中心的同事和其他OHS合作伙伴，以满足 职业卫生专业人员和多样化的劳动力。NC OSHERC的指导使命是提供高质量的 职业安全与健康科学方面的高质量教育和研究培训，以保护和促进工人的健康和健康 并在北卡罗来纳州、东南部地区和全国范围内预防职业病和伤害。为了实现这一点 使命，我们的目标是(1)培养未来的领导者，以满足国家的OHS研究需求和NIOSH优先目标，以及(2) 弥合地区大学内部OHS进行的创新研究与以下需求之间的差距 该地区的劳动力。我们将通过跨学科的OHS培训、研究和服务来实现这些目标。这个 拟议的教育和研究计划的具体目标是： 1.培训职业暴露科学和工业学术领域的从业人员、教育工作者和研究人员 卫生学、职业医学、安全和人体工程学、职业流行病学和全员健康 特别注重培训不同、代表性不足和少数群体的从业者和研究人员。 2.通过课程作业、实践和实地项目、研究活动以及 研讨会。学术培训和有针对性的研究培训计划指导学员发展科学探究技能 和研究到实践(R2P)，以减轻和消除危险，改善工作条件。 3.提供外展和持续教育培训计划，以满足从业者和OHS利益相关者的需求。 4.资助试点研究项目，以支持青年研究人员的发展和推进职业安全与健康科学。 NC OSHERC在提高能力和应对未来OHS培训、研究、 通过培训不同的OHS从业者和专业人员在具有挑战性的 跨学科OHS领域，促进学术研究人员、地方、州和联邦政府之间的更大合作 职业专业人士以及商业和行业部门的利益攸关方。NC OSHERC的总体程序 响应OSHA法案第2(B)(5)节的授权，并处理国家职业研究议程(NORA) 2019年至2024年在Nora部门和跨部门领域的优先事项和至关重要的OHS问题。
