This clearinghouse developed by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) provides access to State-based occupational health surveillance and related reports.
Since 1980, NIOSH has maintained programs to support State-based occupational health surveillance. The intended benefit of supporting State-based surveillance programs is to increase the level of prevention activity in the states. This outcome has as a prerequisite the collection of data to estimate the magnitude and trend of the selected occupational conditions. Although significant accomplishments have been made in occupational health and safety surveillance in the U.S., there are still data gaps.
