Description:Small construction establishments--defined as those with fewer than 20 employees--experience a disproportionate share of fatal work injuries and increasing rates of non-fatal injuries. Reaching and engaging small establishments, and the vulnerable workers they employ, remain a challenge. To address this need, a community-based process targeting CPWR’s Environmental Career Worker Training Program (ECWTP) was developed and tested in four U.S. metropolitan areas. At-risk individuals, including those working in small construction businesses, were surveyed regarding critical safety needs for construction workers in their communities. This process and related outcomes can be used to test and adapt evidence-based safety solutions developed by the CPWR Research to Practice Roundtable on Small Employers at Disproportionate Risk, as well as to expand the communication and collaboration among participating organizations, thereby enhancing research efforts in translational research.
