项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The School-To-Work Opportunities Act (STWOA) was passed in 1994 to support high school youth throughout the nation's public schools in transitioning from school to career-focused work. The Act created a work-based learning program that was modeled after the concept of an apprenticeship which would integrate school-based instruction with structured on-the-job training. Although federal funding for the STW program ended in 2001, many states continue to provide STW program activities for high school students. A report from the United States Department of Education showed that 71.8% of public high schools with 12th grades offered work-based learning programs for credit and 60% offered job shadowing opportunities. Since the inception of the Act, limited research has been conducted to assess STW programs. To date, no studies have investigated work- related injury and occupational safety and health training among students enrolled in work-based learning programs. The proposed study, by a new investigator, will generate information related to the safety and health of students involved in work-based learning programs. To document the occurrence of injury among students in STW programs, data from the Wisconsin State Survey of Youth will be used to accomplish three specific aims: 1. Determine the prevalence, severity, and types of injury that students enrolled in STW programs are sustaining on the job and determine if the prevalence differs by gender, age, race/ethnicity, and job tasks. 2. Delineate whether STW students have fewer injuries compared with other working students and determine if the findings differ based on the hours worked during the day, the total number of hours worked per week, and the job tasks completed. 3. Determine if students enrolled in the STW program are less likely to report being injured and less likely to have "near-miss" incidents compared to other working students who reported receiving OSH training. While there is a large body of information about safety training and injury in adult workers, very little is known about safety training and injury in young workers and none at all in students enrolled in work-based learning programs. The questionnaire data to be analyzed in the proposed study presents the most detailed data available on: work-based learning programs, injuries among the students enrolled in these programs, and safety training and behavioral characteristics among the enrolled students. This proposed project offers the first opportunity to evaluate the occupational safety and health among work-based learning students and compare it to other working students. Injury among working youth is a major public health problem. Many high school students participate in a School-to-Work program, which combines school-based learning with on-the-job mentoring. Nothing is known about the occurrence and severity of injury among students enrolled in the program. This study will be the first to address the occurrence of injury among students enrolled in school-to-work programs.

描述（由申请人提供）：1994年通过了《学校对工作机会法》（STWOA），以支持全国公立学校的高中青年，从而从学校过渡到以职业为中心的工作。该法案创建了一个基于工作的学习计划，该计划是按照学徒制的概念而建立的，该计划将将基于学校的教学与结构化的在职培训相结合。尽管联邦对STW计划的资金于2001年结束，但许多州继续为高中生提供STW计划活动。美国教育部的一份报告显示，有71.8％的公立高中为12年级提供了基于工作的学分学习计划，而60％的公立高中提供了招聘机会。自该法案成立以来，已经进行了有限的研究来评估STW计划。迄今为止，尚无研究研究与工作相关的伤害以及职业安全和健康培训的学生，他们参加了基于工作的学习计划。一名新研究者提出的研究将生成与参与基于工作的学习计划的学生的安全和健康有关的信息。为了记录学生在STW课程中受伤的发生，威斯康星州青年调查的数据将用于实现三个具体目标：1。确定参加STW计划的学生的患病率，严重性和类型是维持工作的受伤，并确定因性别，年龄，年龄，种族/种族/族裔和工作任务的患病率是否有所不同。 2。描述与其他工作学生相比，STW学生的受伤是否较少，并根据白天工作的小时数，每周工作的总小时数以及工作任务完成的结果确定结果是否有所不同。 3.确定与报告接受OSH培训的其他职业学生相比，参加STW计划的学生是否不太可能报告受伤，并且不太可能发生“几乎失去”事件。尽管有大量有关成人工人安全培训和伤害的信息，但对于年轻工人的安全培训和伤害知之甚少，在参加基于工作的学习计划的学生中根本没有任何信息。在拟议的研究中要分析的问卷数据提供了有关：基于工作的学习计划，参加这些计划的学生的伤害以及所在学生中的安全培训和行为特征的最详细数据。这个拟议的项目为评估基于工作的学习学生的职业安全和健康提供了第一个机会，并将其与其他工作学生进行比较。工作青年的伤害是一个主要的公共卫生问题。许多高中生参加了一项学校对工作计划，该计划将基于学校的学习与在职指导相结合。对参加该计划的学生的伤害的发生和严重程度一无所知。这项研究将是第一个解决入学课程学生受伤的事件的问题。
