 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（由申请人提供）：东南部地区的职业死亡率比美国的死亡率高37%。从2008年到2011年，东南部的整体职业死亡率为4.8/10万工人，而美国整体为3.5/10万;东南部12个州中有9个州的死亡率高于美国整体死亡率。东南部各州职业健康网络（SouthON）合作工作会议在未来五年的目标是建立在美国东南部12个州地区的区域职业健康监测（OHS）能力和研究的基础上（亚拉巴马、阿肯色州、佛罗里达、格鲁吉亚、肯塔基州、路易斯安那州、密西西比、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）至：1）在州卫生部门、学术合作伙伴、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区域伙伴关系和合作; 2）发展职业伤害和疾病研究假设; 3）东南部职业伤害和疾病监测; 4）州和东南部区域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OHS能力建设提供流行病学和计划规划工具;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，并通过以下方式在东南地区建立最佳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）病例转介;和4）能力建设。这些拟议的努力将有助于NIOSH跨部门监督计划领域。他们还将解决职业健康差异计划领域的问题，以提高SouthON针对最迫切和最重要需求的工人群体的能力。
