Book Description
"Publication of this NORA Update 2001 and the celebration of our 2001 NORA Symposium mark both the midpoint of the 10-year implementation of NORA and the 30th anniversary of the establishment of NIOSH by the Occupational Safety and Health Act. Throughout its thirty years as the nation's primary research agency for worker safety and health, NIOSH has played a vital role in improving safety and health conditions in the workplace. We track diseases and injuries efficiently, we identify risks with sophisticated techniques, we design and evaluate creative interventions, and we communicate and educate widely and rapidly. For these accomplishments, we acknowledge the scientific excellence of our predecessors, who have brought us further than we ever could have imagined thirty years ago. However, we are all too aware that much remains to be done and new challenges constantly appear. As we remember our past, we recognize that NIOSH did not come this far alone and, as we anticipate our future, we acknowledge that partnership, collaboration, and participation are the keys to success. NORA at five years both reflects and focuses the progress of NIOSH at thirty years. NORA is the embodiment of partnership and--by targeting research--fosters a sense of community and common purpose among researchers and practitioners in the wide variety of disciplines under the banner of occupational safety and health. NORA provides a forum for diverse voices in labor, industry, government, and academia to contribute their unique perspectives. NIOSH at age thirty has a long history of listening to and addressing those perspectives, but NORA has given us a powerful mechanism to convert perspectives into data to effect real change. As in previous years, we are proud to see NORA used as a model for other organizations devising agendas for their own research and practice. " - -p. 1
