• Description:
  CPWR made excellent progress in Year 5 of its National Construction Center cooperative agreement with CDC/NIOSH, continuing to build on our experience administering the program since 1990. In our application for this agreement, we proposed to advance the work of our Construction Center and construction industry safety and health by: (1) building on our current base of knowledge and intensifying and accelerating the identification and adoption of evidence-based best practices throughout the industry; (2) responding to the NIOSH Strategic Plan, Construction Program Expert Panel Review recommendations, and NORA Construction Sector Council goals; (3) continuing our focus on research to practice (r2p), sharing more broadly our support and resources with others; (4) being prepared to respond rapidly to emerging issues and trends, and industry technical assistance requests; (5) disseminating our findings in new and more innovative ways; and (6) tracking and evaluating changes in the industry and in safety and health practices and outcomes.
