NIOSH Sign Up Form

NIOSH is interested in (1) finding partners who can provide access to workplaces for investigation in the following areas; (2) providing information about its research in these areas; and (3) identifying Apps that would help you in your work. Type of Study/Workplace Needed • Cleaning and disinfecting chemicals among healthcare workers – Acute respiratory effects • Exposure to styrene among boat or wind blade manufacturers – respiratory health effects. • Advanced Manufacturing – robotics, 3D printing, other additive manufacturing • Silica Exposure – granite countertops • Vape Shops • Opioids – first responders, HCW, others • Healthcare Workers – Nurses/nursing assistants (job stress, lower extremity disorders, long work hours) • Respiratory and musculoskeletal exposures in shipyards • Occupational Exposures in Upstream Oil and Gas Exploration and Production • Evaluating the effect(s) of prolonged heat exposure on cognitive performance/ underground or surface mines • Design and implementation of a fatigue management system/ All mine types • Understanding the prevalence, cost, and functional outcomes of illnesses and chronic disease in mining/ All mine types • Beyond compliance. Improving the monitoring of worker exposures in mining using a risk-based approach • Manufacturers of e-liquid used in e-cigarettes • Exposures to Two-Dimensional Nanomaterials (including Graphene) at production and downstream manufacturing facilities • PPE comfort, fit, and usability any workplace, emphasis on Healthcare and Public Safety (i.e. corrections, fire services, EMS, law enforcement, wildland fire) • Evaluation of the relationship between airborne lead exposures and blood lead levels in workers. • Peracetic acid used in poultry, meatpacking, other food industries and healthcare settings. • Work design, psychosocial issues, stress, and well-being in Manufacturing workers. • Office spaces where cleaning chemicals have been used on surfaces. Respiratory effects from surface chemistry emissions. Oxidized chemical mixture exposure. • Cured-in-place pipe technology and occupational exposures • Dental laboratory exposures and respiratory health effects • Coffee roasting, flavoring, grinding and packaging emissions and control strategies • Dermal exposures to chemicals and UV, and prevention of occupational skin disease • Exposures to metals, gases, and VOCs/SVOCs among thermal spraying workers • Exposures in nail salons
