Program for Occupational Illness and Injury Surveillance in Connecticut

描述（由申请人提供）：本拟议项目的主要目标是继续保持康涅狄格州的基本职业病和伤害监测能力。这种监测能力不仅包括我们通过康涅狄格州职业病和伤害监测系统（OIISS）收集和分析有关职业伤害和疾病的数据的能力，而且还包括我们利用这些分析结果针对具体干预活动的能力。此外，CT DPH和我们的合作伙伴之间建立的信息交换，在我们的州，地区和国家范围内保护工人健康的利益将保持作为我们计划持续成功的关键组成部分。我们建议通过侧重于实现拟议项目具体目标的活动来实现这一主要目标，这些目标是： 1)通过比较现有的数据来源，继续对康涅狄格州的职业病和伤害漏报进行纵向分析; 2)继续通过对职业性疾病的纵向分析，开展基于人口的监测活动， 康涅狄格州的健康指标; 3)扩大康涅狄格州职业安全与健康规划和行动网络（OSH-PLAN）的职责范围，包括确定职业健康监测的优先顺序， 我国的干预目标; 4)与东北部其他州的职业健康合作伙伴就具体监测活动保持区域合作，包括扩大对选定职业健康指标的分析这些具体目标的制定是为了扩大CT DPH目前的职业病监测能力，并在项目期间保持我们的监测和干预计划的连续性。这些方案提供了在我们国家的工人健康保护的基础上，不仅通过监测和干预活动，而且还通过如何使我们的计划活动更有效率，更有效，更有利于康涅狄格州的劳动力产生的想法。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary objective of this proposed project is to continue to maintain capacity for basic occupational illness and injury surveillance in Connecticut. This surveillance capacity includes not only our ability to collect and analyze data pertaining to occupational injuries and illnesses through the Connecticut Occupational Illness and Injury Surveillance System (OIISS), but also our ability to utilize the results of those analyses to target specific intervention activities. In addition, established information exchange between CT DPH and our partners with a similar interest in protecting worker health within our state, regionally, and nationally will be maintained as a critical component of the continued success of our program. We propose to achieve this primary objective through activities focused on addressing the specific aims of the proposed project, which are: 1) to continue longitudinal analysis of occupational illness and injury under-reporting in Connecticut through comparison of existing data sources; 2) to continue population-based surveillance activities through longitudinal analysis of the occupational health indicators for Connecticut; 3) to broaden the scope of duties for the Connecticut Occupational Safety and Health Planning and Action Network (OSH-PLAN) to include prioritization of identified occupational health surveillance and intervention goals for our state; 4) 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 expand the current capacity for occupational disease surveillance at CT DPH and to maintain continuity in our surveillance and intervention programs for the duration of the project period. These programs provide the basis for the protection of worker health in our state, 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 Connecticut workforce.
