Abstract Climate change continues to adversely affect vulnerable communities which predominately affects people of color. This is evident in Puerto Rico as hurricanes, flooding and serve weather continue to create health hazards that disproportionately affect the island’s citizens, including those involved in work related to remediation and rebuilding efforts after a disaster. The Sustainable Workplace Alliance will conduct training for workers and volunteers involved in response and recovery efforts after a declared disaster. The training would ensure workers are aware of physical and health hazards and mitigation techniques prior to and during response activities. Those workers and community volunteers trained would understand potential health hazards encountered during remediation work after a disaster including mold, lead paint and asbestos exposure. Under this project, we expect to deliver 56 classes covering 13 topics and 4,699 contact hours. The delivery of this training will provide essential training to a minimum of 564 workers and vulnerable community members. The topics we will deliver under this project include the following: • Renovation, Repair and Painting (Lead Paint) • Muck and Gut • Asbestos Awareness • Asbestos Worker • First Aid & CPR • Powered Industrial Truck • OSHA 10 Hour Construction • OSHA 7.5 Hour Site Disaster Worker • OSHA 15 Hour Site Disaster Worker • Hurricane Preparedness and Response • Fall Protection • Respiratory Protection • Psychological First Aid The overarching goal of this project is to reduce injuries and illnesses to workers when performing remediation, demolition, and rebuilding work as a result of a disaster. This project will include program assessment with a goal to evaluate: • The model plan for treating mold damage in Puerto Rico • The challenges faced due to the unique construction methods and materials used in Puerto Rico • How effective our outreach was to workers and community members • The identification of additional best practices during a disaster and during disaster response • Language justice issues that can help foster improvement in disaster prep and recovery communications

抽象的 气候变化继续对主要影响影响的脆弱社区产生不利影响 有色人种。这是波多黎各的证据，因为飓风，洪水和服务继续 造成不成比例地影响该岛公民的健康危害，包括参与的公民 灾难后与补救和重建工作有关的工作。 可持续工作场所联盟将对参与的工人和志愿者进行培训 宣布灾难后的反应和恢复工作。培训将确保工人知道 响应活动之前和期间的身体和健康危害和缓解技术。那些 受过培训的工人和社区志愿者将了解遇到的潜在健康危害 在灾难后的补救工作中，包括霉菌，铅涂料和石棉暴露。 在这个项目下，我们预计将提供56个课程，涵盖13个主题和4,699个联系时间。这 提供此培训的交付将为至少564名工人和弱势群体提供必要的培训 社区成员。我们将在该项目下提供的主题包括以下内容： •翻新，维修和绘画（铅油漆） •泥浆和肠道 •石棉意识 •石棉工人 •急救和CPR •动力工业卡车 •OSHA 10小时施工 •OSHA 7.5小时现场灾难工作者 •OSHA 15小时现场灾难工作者 •飓风准备和回应 •秋季保护 •呼吸保护 •心理急救 该项目的总体目标是在执行时减少工人的伤害和疾病 由于灾难的结果，修复，拆除和重建工作。该项目将包括程序 评估目标： •在波多黎各治疗霉菌损伤的模型计划 •由于波多黎各中使用的独特施工方法和材料而面临的挑战 •我们的外展对工人和社区成员的有效性 •在灾难期间和灾难响应期间确定其他最佳实践 •语言正义问题可以帮助促进灾难准备和恢复的改善 通讯
