We
are very excited about the new NIOSH Science Blog – our most recent
tool for sharing NIOSH research and communicating with our stakeholders. If
you haven’t already visited the blog I encourage you take a look at http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/blog/.
Our latest post on Stress at Work went live yesterday. Other topics
posted since the creation of the blog in November include Preventing
Firefighter Deaths from Cardiovascular events and Truck Driver Safety and
Health.
I
hope that the NIOSH Science Blog will become an important channel through
which NIOSH research can be seen, read, discussed, understood and used to
improve worker safety and health throughout the world. Through robust
scientific discussion with our stakeholders, I also hope that we can sharpen
our own thinking about various occupational safety and health issues and
learn how best to communicate with all segments of our stakeholder community.
I
look forward to hearing from you on the blog.
