Description:The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) is the U.S. federal agency that conducts research and makes recommendations to prevent worker injury and illness. NIOSH research is key to national efforts for preventing worker injuries, illnesses, and deaths and provides practical solutions to identified problems. The Institute's work in this area protects the safety and health of the nation's 153 million workers and provides the only dedicated federal investment for research needed to prevent worker injuries and illnesses that cost the United States $250 billion annually. These safety and health risks take huge tolls on workers, their families, businesses, communities, and the nation's economy; NIOSH works to promote a healthy, safe and capable workforce that can rise to the challenges of the 21 Century.
