Shaping the Future to Ensure Worker Health and Well-being: Shifting paradigms for Research, Training and Policy

工人福利强调生活质量，由个人之间的关系驱动， 工人健康和工作场所内外的因素，寻求让工人茁壮成长， 充分发挥他们的潜力。在职业安全和健康（奥什健康）方面，将工人的福利定为 一个结果意味着一个超越预防工作场所疾病和伤害的范式转变， 促进健康。拥抱这种范式转变需要更广泛的系统思维 为了更好地综合“传统”奥什、个人和社会经济风险因素， 水平和垂直。这种模式可能会影响我们如何进行奥什安全研究、培训 未来奥什专业人员队伍，并设计前瞻性政策， 健康和幸福。在三年的时间里，U13与NIOSH的合作协议 将通过一系列会议， 传播活动，汇集了广泛的，跨专业的观众，其中包括，但 超越了雇主、工人和学术界，侧重于三个关键问题， 研究、培训和政策/应用领域。压倒一切的主题是范式转变 关注奥什。这些活动将包括下列专题讲习班： 第一年，重点是审查未来几年的劳动力变化，培训需求和 工人福利的研究方法和措施。这些活动将是为2010年 庆祝一个大型的，为期多天的国际，跨专业会议在今年2，结构 沿着研究、培训和政策/应用这三个领域。本次会议，在 休斯顿，将设有国家和国际主旨发言人，并行会议， 讨论论坛、案例研究和海报交流， 摘要。在第三年，将举办另一轮讲习班，讨论主题和需求， 从第二年的会议。除了科学会议之外，每个会议的其他产出 该项目的一年将包括在科学和非专业媒体上传播研究结果， 为雇主和工人开发资源，并编制 作为建立广泛的利益攸关方网络的一个重要步骤 继续推进议程。每年的项目都将经历这两个过程 逻辑模型的一般框架下的结果评价。这项建议 支持NIOSH战略计划2019 - 2023，并与所有10个部门计划相关， 特别是健康工作设计跨部门计划和安全技能准备 劳动力和职业健康公平核心和专业计划。

Worker well-being emphasizes quality of life, driven by the relationship between individual worker health and factors both at and outside the workplace, seeking to have workers thrive and achieve their full potential. In occupational safety and health (OSH), setting worker well-being as an outcome implies a paradigm shift beyond the prevention of workplace illness and injury or health promotion. Embracing this paradigm shift requires a more expansive, systems-thinking approach, to better integrate “traditional” OSH, personal and socioeconomic risk factors, both horizontally and vertically. The paradigm will likely affect how we conduct OSH research, train the future OSH professional workforce, and design forward-thinking policies to maximize worker health and well-being. Over a three-year period, this U13 Cooperative Agreement with NIOSH will contribute to this public discourse in a major way through a series of conferences and dissemination activities that bring together a broad, interprofessional audience that includes, but goes beyond employers, workers and the academic community, focusing on the three critical areas of research, training and policy/application. The overriding theme is the paradigm shift in focus for OSH. The activities will consist of a combination of topic-specific workshops in Year 1, centered on examining workforce changes in coming years, training needs and research methods and measures in worker well-being. These activities will be preparatory to the celebration of a large, multi-day international, interprofessional conference in Year 2, structured along the three areas of research, training, and policy/application. This conference, held in Houston, will feature national and international keynote speakers, concurrent sessions, discussion forums, case studies and poster communications following an international call for abstracts. In Year 3 there will be another round of workshops, on themes and needs emanating from the Year 2 conference. In addition to the scientific gatherings, other outputs from each year of the project will include dissemination of findings in both the scientific and lay media, development of resources for employers and workers, and the compilation of distribution lists of interested participants as an important step in the establishment of a broad stakeholder network to continue pushing the agenda forward. Each year of the project will undergo both process and outcome evaluations under the general framework of the logic model. This proposal supports the NIOSH Strategic Plan 2019 – 2023, and is relevant to all 10 Sector Programs, especially the Healthy Work Design Cross-Sector Program, and the Safe Skilled Ready Workforce and Occupational Health Equity Core and Specialty Programs.
