DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary objective of this proposed project is to expand capacity for occupational disease surveillance in Connecticut. This surveillance capacity includes not only the ability to collect and analyze data pertaining to occupational diseases through the Connecticut Occupational Disease Surveillance System, but also the ability to utilize the results of those analyses to target specific intervention activities. In addition, the degree to which information exchange is established and maintained between the Connecticut Department of Public Health Occupational Health Unit and its partners interested in protecting worker health within our state, regionally, and nationally is critical to the continued success of the program. We propose to achieve this primary objective through activities addressing the specific aims of the proposed project, which are: 1) to continue longitudinal analysis of occupational disease underreporting in Connecticut through comparison of existing data sources 2) to continue longitudinal analysis of the occupational health indicators for Connecticut 3) to continue expanded surveillance activities for work-related asthma and heavy metals poisoning 4) to broaden the scope of duties for the Connecticut Occupational Safety and Health Planning and Action Network to include goal setting activities and recommendations for improving occupational health surveillance and intervention in our state 5) to maintain regional collaboration with occupational health partners from the other Northeast states on specific surveillance activities, including expanded analysis of selected occupational health indicators These specific aims have been developed to support the core capacity for occupational disease surveillance in Connecticut and to maintain continuity in existing surveillance and intervention programs for the duration of the project period. These programs and the staff they support provide the basis for the protection of worker health in Connecticut, not only through surveillance and intervention activities but also through the generation of ideas of how to make our program activities more efficient, effective, and beneficial to the health of the Connecticut workforce.

描述（由申请人提供）：这个拟议项目的主要目标是扩大康涅狄格州职业病监测的能力。这种监测能力不仅包括通过康涅狄格职业病监测系统收集和分析与职业病有关的数据的能力，还包括利用这些分析结果针对特定干预活动的能力。此外，康涅狄格公共卫生部职业健康部门与其合作伙伴之间建立和维护信息交流的程度对保护本州、地区和全国范围内的工人健康至关重要。我们建议通过针对拟议项目的具体目标的活动来实现这一主要目标，这些目标是：1)通过对现有数据来源的比较，继续对康涅狄格州职业病漏报情况进行纵向分析；2)继续对康涅狄格州职业健康指标进行纵向分析；3)继续扩大对与工作有关的哮喘和重金属中毒的监测活动；4)扩大康涅狄格州职业安全与健康规划和行动网络的职责范围，包括目标设定活动和建议改善我们州的职业健康监测和干预措施(5)在具体监测活动上与东北其他州的职业健康伙伴保持区域合作；制定这些具体目标是为了支持康涅狄格州职业病监测的核心能力，并在项目期间保持现有监测和干预方案的连续性。这些项目和他们支持的员工为保护康涅狄格州的工人健康提供了基础，不仅通过监督和干预活动，而且通过产生如何使我们的项目活动更有效率、更有效、更有利于康涅狄格州劳动力健康的想法。
