DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant) The University of Alabama's Center for Labor Education and Research is applying for funding under the NIEHS Hazardous Waste Worker Training Program. The proposed project aims to improve the health and safety of four populations of workers: 1) members of the Communications Workers of America (CWA), 2) Native American tribal members and employees, 3) public safety personnel, and 4) emergency medical service (EMS) personnel and hospital-based first receivers. The program will reduce the likelihood of worker exposures during hazardous material emergency response operations by providing specialized training in topics related to OSHA standard 29 CFR 1910.120. CLEAR will offer courses nationwide to members of CWA-a population of over 700,000 workers in telecommunications, manufacturing, health care, publishing, and law enforcement. Training for Native Americans, a population of 2.4 million, will be offered throughout the U.S. to tribal members and employees including tribal police officers, conservation officers, firefighters, environmental officials, emergency planners, and public works employees. The project will target public safety personnel within the southeastern U.S., a population of 162,990 fire and rescue service and law enforcement personnel. The program will also target a population of 14,865 EMS personnel and hospital-based first receivers-including EMTs and nurses, patient care technicians, and other emergency care providers-in Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. All four target populations have in common the potential for exposures to hazardous materials during emergency incidents, the need for hazardous materials training, and insufficient training budgets. Training will be provided using existing curricula and participatory techniques. Courses to be provided include Hazardous Materials Awareness, Operations, and Technician; Incident Management Systems; Basic and Advanced Air Monitoring; Confined Space Rescue; Respirator Fit Testing; Handling Contaminated Patients; Mass Casualty Incident Triage, Clandestine Drug Lab Awareness; Radiological/Nuclear Awareness; WMD Awareness; and Training Techniques. Peer training will be encouraged and supported through a new computer-based Trainer Support Network. The proposed program will train just under 13,000 trainees, not including computer-based training.

描述（由申请人提供） 阿拉巴马大学劳动教育与研究中心正在根据NIEHS有害废物工人培训计划申请资金。拟议的项目旨在改善四名工人人群的健康和安全：1）美国通信工人的成员（CWA），2）美国原住民部落成员和雇员，3）公共安全人员，以及4）紧急医疗服务（EMS）人员和基于医院的第一个接收者。该计划将通过提供与OSHA标准29 CFR 1910.120相关的主题的专门培训，从而减少危险物质紧急响应操作期间工人接触的可能性。 Clear将在全国范围内为CWA-A成员提供70万名工人的电信，制造，医疗保健，出版和执法人员。美国原住民的培训将在整个美国向部落成员和雇员提供，包括部落警察，保护官，消防员，环境官员，紧急急救人员和公共工程员工。该项目将针对美国东南部的公共安全人员，人口为162,990名消防和救援服务和执法人员。该计划还将针对14,865名EMS人员和基于医院的首次接收器，包括EMT和护士，患者护理技术人员以及其他紧急护理提供者，阿肯色州，阿拉巴马州，密西西比州和路易斯安那州。 在紧急事件中，所有四个目标人群都具有暴露于危险物质的潜力，对危险材料培训的需求以及培训预算不足。将使用现有的课程和参与技术进行培训。 要提供的课程包括危险材料意识，操作和技术人员；事件管理系统；基本和先进的空气监测；限制太空救援；呼吸器拟合测试；处理受污染的患者；大规模伤亡事件分类，秘密药物实验室意识；放射学/核意识； WMD意识；和培训技术。 通过新的基于计算机的培训师支持网络，将鼓励和支持同行培训。 拟议的计划将培训不到13,000名的学员，而不包括基于计算机的培训。
