DESCRIPTION (Provided by Applicant): The purpose of this project is to establish a "Fundamental" occupational safety and health surveillance program for the State of Nebraska, within the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (NDHHS), the state agency which has general supervision, control, and primary responsibility over matters relating to public health (Neb. Rev. Stat. 81-601). This program will collect and analyze surveillance data from existing public information and data sources available within NDHHS on all 19 occupational safety and health indicators which have been identified by the NIOSH-States Occupational Surveillance Work Group putting a special emphasis on underserved, high risk groups such as minorities and young workers. These indicators are specific measures of health or risk status (i.e. the occurrence of a health event or of factors associated with that event) among specific working populations. To further enhance surveillance for reportable conditions potentially associated with workplace exposures, we well develop a surveillance system to capture information on poisoning or illness due to exposure to agricultural or industrial chemicals and to provide information to guide recommendations for prevention. We will also collaborate with the Nebraska Office of Environmental Health Hazards and Indoor Air Unit to expand the Adult Blood Lead Epidemiology and Surveillance (ABLES) Program to track elevated blood lead results in adults, enhance surveillance, and provide a higher level of education and training for occupational groups and industries at high risk for lead exposure. In addition to enhanced surveillance, other activities will be prioritized to enhance the effectiveness of the program. An advisory committee of stakeholders will be convened to provide input to direct activities, educational materials will be disseminated to improve worker safety and health awareness in Nebraska, and reports will be generated to share results of data analyses.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目的目的是为内布拉斯加州卫生与公共服务部（NDHHS）内建立一个“基本”职业安全和健康监视计划，该计划（NDHHS）是一般监管，控制，控制，控制，主要责任，与公共卫生有关的事项，与公共卫生有关（NEBSTAT。STAT。81-601）。该计划将从NDHHS中可用的现有公共信息和数据源中收集和分析所有19个职业安全和健康指标，这些数据由NIOSH-StATES职业监视工作组确定，这些指标已识别出这些指标，这些指标已特别强调少数少数群体和年轻工人等高风险群体。这些指标是在特定工作人群中的健康或风险状况的特定措施（即健康事件或与该事件相关的因素的发生）。为了进一步增强可能与工作场所暴露有关的可报告状况的监视，我们很好地开发了一个监视系统，以捕获有关暴露于农业或工业化学品的中毒或疾病的信息，并提供信息以指导预防建议。我们还将与内布拉斯加州的环境健康危害和室内空中部门合作，以扩大成人血液铅的流行病学和监测计划（ABLE）计划，以跟踪成人的血液铅的升高，增强监视，并为职业组和行业提供更高水平的教育和培训，以使潜在客户较高风险。除了增强监视外，其他活动还将优先考虑以增强 该计划的有效性。将召集一个利益相关者的咨询委员会，以提供直接活动的意见，教育材料将被传播以提高内布拉斯加州的工人安全和健康意识，并将生成报告以共享数据分析结果。
