项目摘要/摘要 宾夕法尼亚州是美国第五大州，在全美拥有超过610万工人 一系列行业，如教育和医疗服务、制造业、批发和零售业、休闲 和招待，还有采矿和建筑。截至2018年，宾夕法尼亚州有135,400起非致命工作- 相关伤害和疾病，在参加劳工局的41个州中排名第四 统计(BLS)职业伤害和疾病调查(SOII)职业性血铅中毒 是宾夕法尼亚州的一个主要问题，病例数量在全国名列前茅。一个 全面的、全州范围的职业健康监测计划需要解决工作负担- 宾夕法尼亚州不存在相关的发病率和死亡率。作为其促进健康的使命的一部分 宾夕法尼亚州卫生局(PA DOH)在其居民中的行为和预防伤害和疾病 建议建立一个基本的职业安全和健康监督(PennOSHS)计划。这个 该计划寻求在宾夕法尼亚州建立可持续的公共卫生基础设施，以减少职业 减少发病率和死亡率，消除造成总体健康差距的职业健康差距。 PennOSHS的目标是(1)收集、汇编和分析职业健康数据，以确定需要 公共卫生从业者和其他利益攸关方采取有针对性的行动；及(2)传播相关信息 向这些利益攸关方提供帮助，以改善健康结果。具体来说，PennOSHS将开发、分析和解释 国家职业安全与健康研究所(NIOSH)/州和领土委员会 流行病学家(CSTE)职业健康指标(OHI)，包括全州就业概况； 改进职业性铅暴露的数据收集，分析和解释结果数据；促进 收集与工作有关的变量的重要性，如行业和职业(I/O)；并确定潜在的 支持宾夕法尼亚州整体工人健康的新数据来源。PennOSHS还将发展教育 以及培训材料和基于职业健康保险分析的其他外展努力，以预防/尽量减少 与职业相关的发病率和死亡率，特别是与职业性铅接触有关的发病率和死亡率。这些 将通过与不同的职业安全和健康群体发展伙伴关系来支持这一努力 利益攸关方(学术、政府和社区实体)和设立咨询委员会 它将指导和监测方案的实施和进展。

Project Summary/Abstract Pennsylvania is the 5th largest state in the United States and has more than 6.1 million workers in a wide range of industries such as education and health services, manufacturing, wholesale and retail trade, leisure and hospitality, and mining and construction. As of 2018, Pennsylvania had 135,400 cases of nonfatal work- related injuries and illnesses, the 4th highest number among the 41 states participating in the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (SOII). Occupational blood lead poisoning has been a major concern in Pennsylvania and case counts rank among the highest in the nation. A comprehensive, state-wide occupational health surveillance program needed to address the burden of work- related morbidity and mortality is non-existent in Pennsylvania. As part of its mission to promote healthy behaviors and prevent injury and disease among its residents, the Pennsylvania Department of Health (PA DOH) proposes to establish a fundamental Occupational Safety and Health Surveillance (PennOSHS) program. The program seeks to build sustainable public health infrastructure in Pennsylvania to reduce occupational morbidity and mortality and eliminate occupational health disparities that contribute to overall health disparities. PennOSHS aims to (1) collect, compile, and analyze occupational health data to identify areas that require targeted actions by public health practitioners and other stakeholders and (2) disseminate relevant information to these stakeholders to improve health outcomes. Specifically, PennOSHS will develop, analyze and interpret the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH)/Council of State and Territorial Epidemiologists (CSTE) occupational health indicators (OHI), including the statewide employment profile; improve data collection for occupational lead exposure, analyze and interpret the resulting data; promote the importance of collecting work-related variables, such as industry and occupation (I/O); and identify potentially new sources of data to support total worker health in Pennsylvania. PennOSHS will also develop education and training materials and other outreach efforts based on the analysis of OHIs to prevent/minimize occupationally linked morbidity and mortality especially those related to occupational lead exposure. These efforts will be supported by developing partnerships with a diverse group of occupational safety and health stakeholders (academic, governmental and community entities) and establishment of an advisory committee which will guide and monitor program implementation and progress.
