项目摘要

The Sustainable Workplace Alliance (SWA) proposes to provide model training and outreach to workers engaged in emergency preparation and response activities. The overarching goal of this program is to prevent work-related harm by assisting in teaching first responders how best to protect themselves and their communities from exposure to hazardous materials during emergency response. For the last seven years, SWA and its alliance partners have been leading the HAZMAT P.A.C.T. (Pacific Atlantic & Caribbean Training) initiative, and as a continuation of that initiative, we will focus on providing outreach in Florida, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Hawaii. Additionally, we will service the U.S. Territories of the Pacific Islands, including American Samoa, Guam, Palau, and the Northern Mariana Islands. These locations are especially vulnerable to severe weather related emergencies compounded by the effects of climate change. Our needs assessments for other grant programs have identified other emergencies such as oil spills, overturned tanker trucks, factory fires, ammonia & chlorine leaks and first responder exposure to opioids as being current concerns for first responders and we will provide training in these areas. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, worker populations in our geographic targets include nearly 94,000 workers serving as first responders, including fire, police and paramedics. Trainees would typically be employed as fire fighters (career and volunteer), HAZMAT response team members, police or paramedics. Additionally, Community Emergency Response Team members, Local Emergency Planning Committee members and first receivers at hospitals. Over the five year duration of this Hazmat Disaster Preparedness Training Program (HDPTP), SWA will conduct 245 classes, train 3,205 responders and cover 38,000 contact hours. This model training and outreach program is designed to reduce injuries and death has an obvious positive effect on public health. By providing HDPTP outreach to first responders and citizen response teams, we will foster whole community resiliency and develop responders that are less likely to cause harm to themselves, the community and the environment while performing their job as a responder.

可持续工作场所联盟（SWA）提议提供模型培训和向从事应急准备和响应活动的工作人员进行外展活动。该计划的总体目标是通过协助预防与工作相关的伤害教导急救人员如何最好地保护自己和社区免受在紧急响应期间接触危险材料。在过去的七年里，SWA 及其联盟伙伴一直在 HAZMAT 领域处于领先地位协议。（太平洋大西洋和加勒比培训）倡议，并作为该倡议的延续，我们将重点在佛罗里达州、波多黎各、美属维尔京群岛和夏威夷提供外展服务。此外，我们还将为美国太平洋岛屿领土提供服务，包括美国萨摩亚、关岛、帕劳和北马里亚纳群岛。这些地点特别容易受到恶劣天气相关紧急情况的影响，并因气候影响而加剧改变。我们对其他拨款计划的需求评估发现了其他紧急情况例如漏油、油罐车翻倒、工厂火灾、氨和氯泄漏等急救人员接触阿片类药物是急救人员当前关注的问题，我们将提供这些领域的培训。根据劳工统计局的数据，工人人口我们的地理目标包括近 94,000 名担任急救人员的工作人员，其中包括消防、警察和护理人员。受训人员通常会被雇用为消防员（职业和志愿者）、危险品响应团队成员、警察或护理人员。此外，社区应急小组成员、地方应急计划委员会成员和医院的第一批接收者。在危险品备灾培训计划 (HDPTP) 的五年期间， SWA 将举办 245 个课程，培训 3,205 名响应人员，并覆盖 38,000 小时的接触时间。该模型培训和推广计划旨在减少伤害和死亡对公众健康产生明显的积极作用。通过向急救人员和公民响应团队提供 HDPTP 外展服务，我们将促进整个社区的弹性并培养不太可能对他人造成伤害的响应者在履行响应者的职责时，保护自己、社区和环境。
