Book Description
At the end of each decade of the National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA), NIOSH reviews the contributions of the decade toward improving the occupational safety and health of workers and transferring new knowledge into practice. This review was designed to assess the contributions across three main domains during the second decade: (1) research, (2) sector programs, and (3) partnerships and Research to Practice (r2p).

Book Description
"In April 1996, The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and its partners unveiled the National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA), a framework to guide occupational safety and health research into the next decade. Prior to NORA, there had been no national research agenda in the field of occupational safety and health (or any other field) which had captured such broad input and consensus. This unique process resulted in remarkable agreement about the top 21 research priorities. NORA also provides a means to target research in areas with the highest likelihood of reducing the still significant toll of workplace illness and injury. Twenty partnership teams were formed to assist in the implementation of the Agenda. The partnership teams have had much success in collaborating with the key stakeholders, defining research needs, and leveraging resources for research." - -p. NIOSHTIC-2

Book Description
Partnerships are vital to providing safe and healthy workplaces. Nowhere is this principle more realized than in the National Occupational Research Agenda, or NORA. Nearly ten years ago participants from diverse interests and perspectives joined NIOSH to establish a common research vision for the nation. This collaboration sparked a decade of leadership in occupational safety and health research. Occupational injuries and illnesses affect us all. They result in losses of life, impairments in health, and diminished capacity for men and women in their prime. The burden these injuries and illnesses impose on families, communities, businesses, and the U.S. economy is enormous. Innovative research is critical for designing new tools and methods to reduce these burdens, and for anticipating new concerns in a changing workplace. No single agency or institution can face the challenges of mounting such research alone. NORA offers a blueprint for developing effective partnerships. Through NORA diverse parties collaborated to produce innovative occupational safety and health research, and then worked to translate that research into effective workplace practices. By leveraging the talents and resources of many partners, NORA has stimulated important advancements in workplace safety and health.
