TY - Field Study AU - Zubieta, Ingrid A2 - California Department of Public Health AB - On Sep 15, 2023, a 45-year-old male warehouse worker (the victim) at a warehouse and distribution center was fatally injured after falling from the platform of an order picker forklift. The victim was operating the order picker to check an item from a shelving rack three levels up. The victim was working by himself and was not wearing fall protection. A co-worker in a nearby aisle heard a sound and ran to the area where they found the victim lying on the concrete floor. The victim was transported to the hospital where he died from his injuries 17 days later. Contributing factors: Failure to ensure proper use of fall protection, inspect equipment, and correct unsafe work practices; Lack of written policies and procedures on how to safely operate forklifts and use fall protection; No forklift training or certification program; Lack of audible or visual alarms on forklifts to indicate when an employee is not tied-off. Recommendations - California FACE (CA/FACE) investigators determined that, in order to prevent similar incidents, warehouses & distribution centers and forklift manufacturers should: 1) Ensure that all order picker forklift operators receive training and adequate supervision to always use fall protection when working at heights. 2) Integrate fall protection warning devices that will activate audible and visual alarms if the operator is not tied-off while working at heights.

TY - Field Study AU - Zubieta, Ingrid A2 - California Department of Public Health AB - On December 4, 2023, a 54-year-old male self-employed welder (the victim) working at a motor oil and lubricating products manufacturing facility, died from inhalation exposure to methylene chloride. The victim entered a 20 ft high by 10 ft wide empty motor oil storage tank to repair one of the blades inside. The victim was working by himself and used a product containing methylene chloride to remove oil residue at the bottom of the tank. The tank was not adequately ventilated, the victim was not trained in confined space entry, there was no attendant at the tank opening to monitor the work process inside, and there was no rescue plan in place. A company employee later located the victim at the bottom of the oil tank. The victim was removed from the tank and pronounced dead at the scene. Contributing factors: Using a product containing methylene chloride; Lack of confined space entry and rescue procedures; Lack of chemical hazard communication program; Lack of adequate respiratory protection. Recommendations - The California FACE (CA/FACE) investigator determined that, in order to prevent similar incidents, oil manufacturing companies should: 1) Avoid purchasing, storing and/or using products that contain methylene chloride. 2) Ensure oil tanks are identified as permit-required confined spaces when methylene chloride is used inside the tank. 3) Ensure a chemical hazard communication program is developed and implemented.

Both the vehicle and tow truck were stopped on a triangular gore adjacent to the #6 lane and an onramp. The victim exited the driver's side of the flatbed truck and was standing within the #6 lane when he was struck by the vehicle traveling 65-70 mph. Contributing factors: Failure to recognize an unsafe condition posed by the gore; Lack of awareness of California's Move Over law; Failure to call law enforcement to secure the work area prior to loading a vehicle onto the tow truck. Recommendations - The California FACE (CA/FACE) investigator determined that, in order to prevent similar incidents, roadside assistance companies: 1) Develop and implement a safety training program for tow truck operators that emphasizes how to recognize and respond to unique situations (e.g., a gore), approaching traffic, and other hazards. 2) Promote awareness of the California Move Over law. 3) Ensure tow truck operators work with law enforcement/emergency service providers to secure the work area prior to loading a vehicle. 4) Promote use of variable messaging signs to help direct traffic away from roadside responders.

Methods. We extracted data on employed adults aged 18 to 64 years from the 2021 and 2022 US Medical Expenditure Panel Survey. We assessed associations between PSL and COVID-19 vaccination status using logistic regression. We used marginal effects analyses to estimate associations within occupation and industry groups. Results. Our analytic sample (n = 15 089) represented more than 114 million employed US adults. Access to PSL was significantly associated with receipt of a COVID-19 vaccination (adjusted odds ratio = 1.33; 95% confidence interval = 1.14, 1.55). Marginal effects analyses indicated that this association was significant within most occupation and industry groups. Conclusions. These findings suggest PSL is associated with higher COVID-19 vaccination rates among US workers. PSL remains an important tool for improving preventive health care access and reducing rates of infectious disease in the United States.

AB - Objective: Rheumatoid arthritis-associated interstitial lung disease (RA-ILD) is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality among patients with RA, yet effective risk stratification for RA-ILD is lacking. We sought to characterize unique peripheral blood biomarker signatures in RA that could improve RA-ILD discrimination beyond clinical and genetic risk factors. Methods: We performed a cross-sectional study of participants in the Veterans Affairs Rheumatoid Arthritis Registry. ILD was validated through systematic record review. Autoantibodies (n = 14), proinflammatory cytokines/chemokines (n = 36), adipokines (n = 3), alarmins (n = 3), and matrix metalloproteinases (n = 9) were measured from banked serum or plasma. MUC5B rs35705950 genotyping was obtained via microarray. Principal component (PC) analysis was performed to derive unique biomarker signatures. Logistic regression was used to compare models predicting RA-ILD presence using combinations of clinical, peripheral biomarker, and genetic variables. Results: Among 2,001 participants with RA (88.7% male, mean age 63.7 years), 121 (6.4%) had RA-ILD. A total of 15 PCs were identified, with 8 significantly associated with RA-ILD after adjusting for clinical factors. These eight included biomarker themes of innate and allergic responses, autoantibodies (anti-cyclic citrullinated peptide, rheumatoid factor, anti-malondialdehyde-acetaldehyde adduct), adipokines, alarmins, tissue remodeling, and neutrophil chemotaxis. Models with PCs (area under the receiver operating characteristic curve [AUC] 0.739) and PCs with MUC5B (AUC 0.751) outperformed clinical risk factors alone (AUC 0.630; P < 0.001). Conclusion: Peripheral biomarker signatures are associated with RA-ILD and improve RA-ILD identification beyond clinical risk factors. In addition to demonstrating the potential for peripheral biomarkers to aid RA-ILD risk stratification, these findings suggest diverse pathways are involved in RA-ILD pathogenesis.

AB - A recent commentary on epidemiological studies of nuclear workers notes that these studies can provide radiation risk estimates that complement those derived from the study of Japanese atomic bomb survivors. The author asserts that the results from some nuclear worker studies are difficult to interpret due to the fact that ERR/Gy estimates vary across subcohorts, and subcohort-specific estimates are not always equal to estimates obtained in the overall study population. We discuss settings in which it is reasonable to expect that an estimate of association in a subcohort should be similar to an estimate obtained in the full cohort and settings in which a subcohort analysis may differ from the estimate obtained in a full cohort analysis. Focusing on the INWORKS study, we describe some of the steps taken to understand variation in estimates of ERR/Gy between subgroups and upon restrictions, as well as interpretation of estimates of external dose-mortality associations in the total study population.

TY - Journal Article AU - Odes, Rachel AU - Lee, Soo-Jeong AU - Hong, Oi Saeng AU - Kuo, Wan-chin AB - Background: Workplace violence towards healthcare workers impacts workforce stability and patient care delivery. California passed a workplace violence prevention standard, phased in during 2017-2018, requiring enhanced tracking and training in healthcare workplaces. Workers' compensation claims provide a tool to track frequency of violence over time. Methods: This descriptive study synthesizes data from the California Workers' Compensation Information System (WCIS) covering all healthcare workplaces in the state. Claims included were filed from 2013 to 2021. We tabulated the annual rate of workplace violence-related claims, types of workplaces with high rates of claims, and types of injuries caused by violence. Results: We identified 46,762 violence-related workers' compensation claims over the study period from a total of 418,278 total claims (11%). The highest rate of violence-related claims was in 2019 (5.6 claims per 1000 healthcare workers). Residential care facilities for children reported 31% of their total claims as violence-related, and psychiatric and substance-use hospitals reported 35% of their total claims as violence-related. Most healthcare industry claims were from individuals working in hospitals, and employees in these workplaces reported between 11% and 13% of total claims as violence-related. Conclusions: Workers' compensation claims provide an important description of workplace violence exposure among healthcare workers, and the relative stability of measurement makes it a useful way to track the impact of mitigation strategies over time. It would be valuable for workers' compensation claims managers to capture an assessment of whether an incident involved violence to facilitate appropriate connection to needed resources, including psychological support, for an injured worker.

AB - Background: The New York City (NYC) Pregnant Workers Fairness Act (PWFA) went into effect in January 2014 to provide greater flexibility for pregnant workers' accommodations, yet no studies to date have evaluated its effectiveness and utilization. We examined factors associated with pregnant workers' PWFA awareness, understanding of PWFA, and receipt of accommodations in a lower socioeconomic status population in NYC. Methods: Participants included 481 pregnant workers who attended prenatal visits at Mount Sinai Hospital Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinic in NYC in 2017. Detailed demographic and occupational data were collected via in-person interviews using a pregnancy and work survey. Information on participants' PWFA awareness, knowledge of PWFA-eligible accommodations, and accommodations received was also obtained. Multivariable-adjusted logistic regressions were used to identify the factors influencing PWFA awareness, knowledge of PWFA-eligible accommodations, and accommodations received among six common examples. Results: Only 14% of participants had ever heard of NYC PWFA legislation. Lower educational level (≤ 12th grade) (Adjusted Odds Ratio [aOR] = 0.54, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] = 0.30-0.98) and being unsure of workplace maternity leave policy (aOR=0.39, 95% CI=0.18-0.87) were associated with lack of PWFA awareness. Regardless of PWFA awareness, no maternity leave policy (aOR = 0.15, 95% CI = 0.04-0.48 vs. paid policy) and being unsure of maternity leave policy (aOR = 0.19, 95% CI = 0.06-0.59 vs. paid policy) were associated with no knowledge of any PWFA-eligible accommodations. Regardless of their PWFA awareness, women working for ≤ 5 years (aOR=0.42, 95% CI=0.22-0.83), non-U.S. born (aOR=0.57, 95% CI=0.36-0.90), and high-risk pregnancy clinic patients (aOR=0.59, 95% CI=0.38-0.93) all had lower odds of receiving PWFA-eligible accommodations, such as adjustment to lighter duty, compared to their counterparts. Conclusions: Lower educational level, lack of paid workplace maternity leave policy, shorter job tenure, and non-U.S. born were associated with decreased PWFA awareness and/or accommodations received. As more women continue to work during pregnancy, interventions promoting PWFA awareness and utilization are paramount for protecting the maternal and child health of these identified vulnerable groups, especially given that final regulations for a national PWFA recently went into effect across the United States in June 2024.

The prospective relationship between workers' VT symptoms and physical health has not been studied. Methods: Survey data from 775 hospital workers were linked to health insurance expenditures to identify stress-related conditions known as disorders of gut-brain interaction (DGBIs) occurrence within 1-year follow-up. VT symptoms (modeled continuously and categorically) and conditional odds of developing DGBI were assessed with multilevel logistic regression. Results: Conditional odds of DGBI increased 4% for every one-point increase in VT symptom score (95% confidence interval, 0.98 to 1.11; P = 0.17). Participants with high versus low VT symptoms had 3.40-times the conditional odds of DGBI (95% confidence interval, 1.44 to 8.06; P = 0.01). Conclusion: Workers with high versus low VT symptoms had significantly higher odds of developing DGBIs, indicating that VT may adversely impact workers' physical health.

AB - Introduction: Motor-vehicle crashes (MVCs) are the leading cause of work-related death among U.S. Oil and Gas Extraction (OGE) industry workers. It is possible that seat belt use could have contributed to reducing MVC-related deaths. Although research has identified instances of non-seat belt use in this industry, reasons behind this behavior are not well understood. Methods: A convenience sample of OGE employees participated in interviews (n = 18 workers) and three focus groups (n = 9 supervisors). Instruments incorporated theoretical constructs from the Health Belief Model (HBM) to obtain perceptions and experiences that might impact work-related seat belt use. Worker and supervisor data were qualitatively analyzed and then triangulated to cross-validate findings and ensure data saturation. Themes were deductively aligned with HBM constructs. Results: Most participants reported always using their seat belts or observing employee seat belt use. Some participants acknowledged circumstances when they or others might not wear a seat belt. Four primary themes emerged: Situational risk and readiness, Company behavioral norms, Belief-based barriers, and Personal safety standards. Within each theme, several codes provided additional insights that aligned with HBM constructs including perceived susceptibility to experiencing an MVC and severity of the outcome; perceived barriers and benefits to using a seatbelt; and cues to action that prompted seat belt use over time. Conclusions/Practical applications: Our data suggest that worker knowledge of company programs and associated consequences of non-compliance, including supervisory enforcement, support seat belt use. State laws and technology found in company vehicles such as in-vehicle monitoring systems and phone apps also influence seat belt use. Future research may explore how to integrate these aspects into a driving safety program that serves as a comprehensive cue to action hence, enhancing perceived benefits of seat belt use, correcting misconceptions about barriers, and incorporating strategic messaging, training, and education during onboarding and at times of heighted perceived susceptibility and severity.

AB - Multiple studies indicate that workers are being exposed to emissions from material extrusion three-dimensional (3D) printing processes and suffering adverse health effects from the exposures. To mitigate these exposures, we developed and evaluated four low-cost engineering controls to capture particle emissions during 3D printing processes. Two controls (Controls A and B) were custom developed using 3D printed parts and retrofitted onto the extruder of two open-frame desktop fused filament fabrication (FFF) 3D printers (Printers 1 and 2) to capture emissions near the source. A third control (Control C) used a commercially available, printer-specific enclosure that partially encapsulated Printer 2, while a fourth control (Control D) was built using acrylic panels to fully enclose Printer 2. Particle emissions from each control were exhausted through NIOSH-designed air filtration units consisting of a high-efficiency filter, blower fan, and 3D printed housing/components. Control effectiveness was evaluated in an emissions test chamber by comparing average particle concentrations at the chamber outlet while 3D-printing a National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) test artifact with black acrylonitrile butadiene styrene filament, with and without the controls in operation. Minimum capture efficiencies were 99.7% for Control A, 91.6% for Control B, 28.6% for Control C, and 99.8% for Control D. Internal cooling fans in Printer 2 allowed particle emissions to bypass Control C, limiting its effectiveness. Overall, capturing emissions at the source (Controls A and B) and fully enclosing the printer (Control D) were highly effective and demonstrated that low-cost engineering controls can mitigate particle emissions from 3D printing processes.

Dermal contact, an under-researched pathway of Pb exposure relative to inhalation and ingestion, is typically not factored into regulatory exposure limits because of the paucity of validated studies. This study investigated the influence of sweat on the bioaccessibility of inorganic lead for dermal absorption. Dissolution testing was conducted to determine the dissolution kinetics of inorganic Pb (lead nitrate) in synthetic sweat relative to deionized water (DIW). Particle sizes of samples ranged from 0.70 µm to 118 µm. Non-linear dissolution kinetics were observed in both DIW (control) and sweat. The iPb ion concentration in DIW after 3 h (test period) accounted for 100% of the initial mass of iPb, compared to 67% of the initial mass of iPb in sweat. Higher variability was observed in sweat (SD: 1.47 to 8.2) compared to DIW (SD: 0.80 to 3.88). Precipitation was observed in sweat but not in DIW. Wilcoxon rank-sum test indicated a statistically significant difference in dissolution between sweat and deionized water (Z = -4.50, p < 0.0001). Findings suggest that sweat composition limits the extent of dissolution of soluble inorganic Pb, thereby influencing its dermal bioaccessibility.

AU - Saravanan, Pratima AB - Decision fatigue undermines the quality and effectiveness of decision-making in the challenging and life-threatening environments of firefighting. This study employed an exploratory sequential design to qualitatively identify the causes and consequences of decision fatigue in firefighting and quantify the severity of the consequences of each cause. Retrospective interviews were conducted with 19 firefighters, followed by a survey with 329 firefighters. Qualitative analysis, employing an emergent themes approach, identified 39 sub-causes and 20 sub-consequences of decision fatigue, which were eventually grouped into eight causes and five consequences. The quantitative analysis phase included univariate and multivariate regression analyses to determine significant predictors among the 39 causes, perceived stress, and occupational fatigue on the total consequence of decision fatigue. Overall, the study's findings underscore the significance of investigating fatigue in firefighting and provide the groundwork for developing training programs and coping strategies to mitigate it and improve operational efficiency.

AB - Background: Responders to the September 11, 2001, WTC attacks experience high rates of PTSD, and existing treatments often lead to high dropout and low care use. Objectives: This randomized, double-blind, sham-controlled trial assesses the feasibility and acceptability of transcutaneous auricular vagus nerve stimulation (taVNS) as a potential PTSD treatment for 9/11 responders. Methods: A total of 32 WTC responders aged 18+ with PTSD, recruited via the World Trade Center Health Program, participated; those with current psychosis, unstable medical conditions, or recent trial involvement were excluded. Participants were randomly assigned to taVNS or sham groups and asked to use the device for 15 min daily for 8 weeks, with staff and participants blinded. Primary outcomes included recruitment, adherence, retention, and feedback. Secondary outcomes examined changes in depression (PHQ-9), anxiety (GAD-7), and sleep (PSQI). Data were analyzed with mixed-effects models focusing on PTSD and mental health symptoms. Results: The taVNS group showed modest PTSD improvement, with a 10-point CAPS-5 reduction in 40% of stimulation participants versus 28.5% sham; no significant differences in self-reported symptoms were found. Discussion: Daily taVNS over eight weeks is feasible and acceptable, warranting larger studies to detect differences and identify subgroups with greater benefit. Trial registration: "taVNS to Reduce PTSD Symptoms in WTC Responders" (NCT05212714); registered 9 September 2021.

However, the implications of PTG for the enrollees' overall quality of life are unknown. The present study investigated the prevalence of PTG and its association with the SF-12 physical and mental function quality of life scales in a sample of 2786 enrollees from the Registry's Health and Quality of Life Study (HQoL) who completed the first four surveys, were older than 18 on 9/11, reported English as their primary spoken language, and provided consistent self-report of 9/11 physical injury at the Registry's baseline and HQoL surveys. We employed multivariable linear regression to evaluate the association between PTG and the SF-12 physical and mental scales, controlling for sex, age, race, education, income, employment, social support, threatening events, post-9/11 mental health, number of post-9/11 physical health conditions, and drug/alcohol misuse. We found that 31% of the sample enrollees experienced PTG and that PTG exhibited a clinically and statistically significant association with the SF-12 mental scale but not the physical scale (physical: β = -0.01 (-0.61, 0.65), mental: β = 3.92 (2.89, 4.95)). Those who were physically injured during 9/11 showed larger improvements in mental function than those who were not. PTG has implications for the overall mental quality of life that should be further investigated.

Methods: This study used multivariable logistic regression to estimate the impact of burnout and thriving from work on turnover intention in a cohort of nurses and nursing assistants. Using administrative records of turnover, we used Cox regression to estimate the impact of these two factors on actual turnover. Results: Burnout affected both turnover intention and actual turnover, although 95% confidence limits for the effect of burnout among nursing assistants included 1.0. Thriving affected turnover intention but did not increase actual turnover. Conclusions: Using turnover intention as a proxy for actual turnover may be misleading.
