Hazardous Materials Worker Health and Safety Training (U45 Clinical Trial Not Allowed)

NIEHS invites applications for cooperative agreements to support the development of model programs for the training and education of workers engaged in activities related to hazardous materials and waste generation, removal, containment, transportation and emergency response.

This funding opportunity
announcement aims to prevent work-related harm through safety and health training.

The training programs will transmit skills and knowledge to workers in how best to protect themselves and their communities from exposure to hazardous materials encountered during hazardous waste operations, hazardous materials transportation, environmental restoration of contaminated facilities or chemical emergency response.

A variety of sites, such as those involved with chemical waste cleanup and remedial action and transportation-related chemical emergency response, may pose severe health and safety concerns to workers and the surrounding communities.

These sites contain many hazardous substances, sometimes unknown, and often a site is uncontrolled.

A major goal of the Worker Training Program (WTP) is to support institutional competency-building for the development and delivery of model training and education programs.
