总体项目摘要/摘要 作为501(C)(3)非营利性机构，创建的唯一目的是改善美国的工作条件。 在建筑行业，CPWR的使命与NIEHS工人培训计划(WTP)的目标一致。 CPWR作为一个组织的宗旨，如其公司章程所述，是“鼓励消除 或减少对工人健康或安全构成危害的条件，并促进 维护和改善工人安全健康的工作条件。 除了CPWR作为一个组织的这些广泛的、长期的目标外，本建议的具体目标 培训计划是：1)第一年培训5820名学生/工人，共398个课程，共计29,100人 在五年期间参加1,945门课程的学生，并通过每年 培训培训者方案和加强讲师(HWWTP)；2)培训138名少数民族和其他 第一年63门课程的学生人数不足，五年级以上的315门课程总共有690名学生 五个城市(洛杉矶新奥尔良、明尼苏达州圣保罗、密歇根州弗林特、马萨诸塞州波士顿和加利福尼亚州东帕洛阿尔托)和 至少80%参加建筑工会学徒培训计划，从事建筑和 环境修复行业(EWCTP)；3)直接培训86名额外的1 374名外展指导员 灾难方案第一年的课程，在五年内总共有6870名教师参加了430门课程 在此期间，在部分支持3 700多名外展指导员的同时，继续与 NIEHS、其他受赠者和OSHA推动培训，作为我们共同努力的一部分 美国建筑业应对大规模自然灾害和人为灾害的准备情况 (HDPTP)；和4)在五年期间继续进行严格的评估，以持续评估培训 所有三个项目的有效性。 为了实现这些目标，CPWR与基于社区的协调和合作提交了这份申请 我们的目标ECWTP城市中的组织，以及由12个国际/国家建筑组成的培训联盟 代表从事危险废物工作的工人的工会在大约1910.120个指定地点 国家的应急反应，无论是自然的还是人为的，以及在其他环境有害的 工作任务。因此，我们提议的计划是全国性的，我们的建筑行业工会 代表300多万名建筑工人的培训联盟分散在全球各地 这个国家的每个州。 CPWR的建筑行业工会培训联盟是多样化的，我们的12个合作工会中的每一个 代表在环境修复现场应用不同技能的工人。这是典型的 行业及其劳动力的周期性、暂时性，我们的目标工人人口时断时续 环境补救地点，经常从一个雇主转移到另一个雇主。HWWTP在这方面的建议 申请书详细描述了我们12个联盟合作伙伴中的每一个代表的工人的工作类型 在指定的1910.120个地点演出。无论他们在这些网站上工作几年、几个月、几周还是只有一年 几天后，在这一拟议计划的支持下，CPWR及其12个联盟合作伙伴旨在确保实现这些目标 工人们接受了充分的培训，以保护自己、同事和环境。

Overall Project Summary/Abstract As a 501 (c)(3) not-for-profit institution created for the sole purpose of improving working conditions in the U.S. construction industry, CPWR's mission aligns with the goals of the NIEHS Worker Training Program (WTP). CPWR's purpose as an organization, as stated in its Articles of Incorporation are; “to encourage the elimination or reduction of conditions constituting hazards to the health or safety of workers, and to promote the maintenance and improvement of safe and healthy working conditions for workers.” Beyond these broad, long-term objectives of CPWR as an organization, the specific aims of this proposed training program are: 1) to train 5,820 students/workers in 398 courses in the first year with a total of 29,100 students in 1,945 courses over the five year period, and to continue instructor development through annual Train-the-Trainer programs and Instructor Enhancements (HWWTP); 2) to train 138 minority and other underrepresented students in 63 courses in the first year with a total of 690 students in 315 courses over a five year period in five cities (New Orleans, LA; St. Paul, MN; Flint, MI; Boston, MA; and East Palo Alto, CA) and place at least 80% in construction union apprenticeship training programs for jobs in the construction and environmental remediation industries (EWCTP); 3) to directly train 1,374 additional Outreach Instructors in 86 courses in the disaster program in the first year with a total of 6,870 Instructors in 430 courses over a five year period, while partially supporting more than 3,700 additional Outreach Instructors, and to continue to work with NIEHS, other grantees, and OSHA in moving the training forward as part of our collective efforts to increase preparedness in the U.S. construction industry to respond to large scale natural and man-made disasters (HDPTP); and 4) continue rigorous evaluation over the five year period to continuously assess training effectiveness of all three programs. To achieve these aims, CPWR submits this application in coordination and cooperation with community-based organizations in our targeted ECWTP cities and with a training consortium of 12 international/national building trades unions representing workers engaged in hazardous waste work at designated 1910.120 sites around the country, emergency response whether it be natural or man-made, and in other environmentally hazardous work assignments. Our proposed program is therefore national in scope, with our building trades union training consortium representing more than 3 million construction workers geographically dispersed throughout every state in the country. CPWR's building trades union training consortium is diverse, with each of our 12 partnering unions representing workers that apply different skills necessary on environment remediation sites. Typical of the cyclical, transient nature of the industry and its workforce, our target population of workers move on and off environmental remediation sites, often moving from one employer to another. The HWWTP proposal in this application describes in detail the types of jobs workers represented by each of our 12 consortium partners perform on designated 1910.120 sites. Whether they work on these sites for years, months, weeks, or just a few days, with the support of this proposed program CPWR and its 12 consortium partners aim to assure these workers are adequately trained to protect themselves, their co-workers, and their environment.
