Purpose: The Safety and Occupational
Health Study Section will review,
discuss, and evaluate grant
application(s) received in response to
the Institute’s standard grants review
and funding cycles pertaining to
research issues in occupational safety
and health, and allied areas.
It is the intent of NIOSH to support
broad-based research endeavors in
keeping with the Institute’s program
goals. This will lead to improved
understanding and appreciation for the
magnitude of the aggregate health
burden associated with occupational
injuries and illnesses, as well as to
support more focused research projects,
which will lead to improvements in the
delivery of occupational safety and
health services, and the prevention of
work-related injury and illness. It is
anticipated that research funded will
promote these program goals.
Matters for Dicussion: The meeting
will convene to address matters related
to the conduct of Study Section
business and for the study section to
consider safety and occupational healthrelated grant applications.

Background and Brief Description
The mission of the National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) is to promote safety & health at
work for all people through research
and prevention. NIOSH, under PL 91–
173 as amended by PL 95–164 (Federal
Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977) has
the responsibility to conduct research to
improve working conditions and to
prevent accidents and occupational
diseases in the U.S. mining sector. The
goal of the proposed project is to
investigate how ingress/egress systems
on mobile equipment, and personal
protective footwear (boots) used by
miners may lead to slips, trips and falls
at stone, sand and gravel surface mining
facilities. NIOSH is requesting a threeyear approval for this data collection.
The project objective will be achieved
through two studies. The first study
aims to: Identify elements of ingress/
egress systems on haulage trucks and
front end loaders that pose a risk of
slips, trips and falls (STFs) and could
lead to STF related injuries; to
determine worker behavior associated
with STF incidents; and to learn how
purchasing/maintenance decisions are
made for ingress/egress systems. In the
surface mining industry, it is still
unclear which component of the
ingress/egress system poses the greatest
risk for STF. Hence there is a need to
understand where, how and why STF
incidents occur during ingress/egress on
mobile equipment.
