NIEHS Worker Training Program?s HAZMAT Training at DOE Nuclear Weapons Complex (UH4 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

The National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS) intends to publish a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) to solicit applications for the NIEHS/DOE Worker Training Program's HAZMAT Training at US Department of Energy (DOE) Nuclear Weapons Complex. The major objective of the NIEHS WTP is to prevent work-related harm by training workers in how best to protect themselves and their communities from exposure to hazardous materials. The program is committed to preventing chronic disease/conditions, promoting mental health resilience, and improving the overall well-being of the U.S. workforce through health and safety education and training. • The program will provide support for the development of health and safety training of workers exposed to hazardous materials. • The training will include health and safety training for workers and their supervisors, who are engaged in hazardous waste generation, treatment, storage, disposal, removal, containment, transportation, or emergency response. • Investigators with expertise and insights into this area of occupational, environmental health and safety education and training are encouraged to apply. • Collaborative investigations combining expertise in industrial hygiene and environmental exposures will be encouraged.
