 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed study will focus on the logging industry in Public Health Region 6, which is serviced by the Southwest Center for Agricultural Health, Injury Prevention, and Education, headquartered at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Tyler. Our research efforts will focus on logging operations in the Ark-La-Tex region (Arkansas, Louisiana, Texas logging region). The long-term goal of the proposed project is to reduce or eliminate injuries and fatalities among a vulnerable workforce of logging workers. The objectives of this proposal are to describe safety management practices currently being used on logging cut sites, as well as examine the relationships between safety leadership, group safety climate, and worker safety behaviors. This study will engage logging contractors in a participatory approach to develop a survey instrument to assess safety management and leadership among contractors, and group safety culture and safety behaviors among workers. The administration of this instrument will generate data which will help develop a safety management and leadership training module for logging contractors.

 描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的研究将集中在公共卫生区域6的伐木业，该区域由西南农业健康、伤害预防和教育中心提供服务，该中心总部位于泰勒的德克萨斯大学健康科学中心。我们的研究工作将集中在Ark-La-Tex地区（阿肯色州，路易斯安那州，得克萨斯州伐木区）的伐木作业。拟议项目的长期目标是减少或消除伐木工人这一弱势劳动力的伤亡。本提案的目的是描述目前正在使用的伐木切割现场的安全管理实践，以及检查安全领导，群体安全气候和工人安全行为之间的关系。本研究将采用参与式方法，开发一种调查工具，以评估承包商的安全管理和领导，以及工人的群体安全文化和安全行为。这一工具的管理将产生数据，有助于为伐木承包商开发安全管理和领导能力培训模块。
