  • Description:
    Welcome to the inaugural issue of TWH® in Action!, an electronic newsletter dedicated to bringing you the latest news from the NIOSH Total Worker Health® (TWH®) Program and our partners. In case you’re wondering what happened to the NIOSH WorkLife Program, the Total Worker Health® Program was launched in 2011 (/niosh/enews/enewsV9N2.html) as the next generation of our ongoing commitment to integrating occupational safety and health protection with health promotion and well-being in the workplace.

    What exactly do we mean by Total Worker Health®? NIOSH views TWH® as a strategy integrating health protection with health promotion to prevent worker injury and illness and to enhance well-being. As you read through this newsletter you will begin to experience how this idea moves from approach to action. We’ve selected three special articles to highlight the TWH® concept. Read on to find out how sleep influences work, who’s implementing promising TWH® practices, and what’s new at the NIOSH-funded Centers of Excellence.
