Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C.

The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention’s (CDC) Dental Unit plans to
conduct an evaluation of the acceptance
and implementation of its 2003
Guidelines for Infection Control in
Dental Health Care Settings. These
Guidelines took an evidence-based
approach to recommending infection
control procedures, coalescing existing
guidelines developed over the past
decade with new infection control
measure recommendations supported by
research. In releasing the Guidelines just
over two years ago, the CDC mailed
more than 400,000 copies to practicing
dentists, hygienists, dental schools and
educators, and health science libraries.
CDC also prepared a summary of the
Guidelines that were published in the
Journal of the American Dental
Association (JADA) in early 2004. At
this time, it is critical to the Dental
Unit’s dissemination plan to mount an
evaluation of the effectiveness of CDC’s
activities in moving the behavior of
practicing dentists in the direction of
increased adoption and implementation
of recommendations put forth in the
Guidelines.
CDC has contracted with the Research
Triangle Institute (RTI) and its
subcontractor, the American Dental
Association (ADA), to design and
conduct the first phase of such an
evaluation. This phase includes
conducting a mail survey to a
probability sample of 6,500 dentists
actively engaged in the private practice
of clinical dentistry in the United States.
The sample will be selected from the
ADA’s dentist Master file, the nation’s
most up-to-date and complete listing of
U.S. dentists. The Master file is
associated with extensive descriptive
information on U.S. dentists based on
returns to other ADA survey and
updating activities. Included in the
master file is information that will allow
the sample to: Be selected with equal
precision from the U.S. Census
Divisions; include over-representation
of selected specialties, i.e., oral surgery
and periodontics; identify dentists in
private practice; and weight the sample
according to selected demographic and
professional characteristics so the
results can accurately reflect all active
private practice dentists in the U.S. We
expect to achieve a response rate of at
least 70 percent, which will yield 4,550
completed questionnaires. There are no
costs to respondents other than their
time to participate in the survey. The
total estimated annual burden hours are
1,138.

Proposed Project
Occupational Safety and Health
Information Needs and Uses By Trade
Associations and Labor Unions Within
Eight Industrial Sectors—New—

Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 70 / Thursday, April 12, 2007 / Notices
Background and Brief Description
As mandated in the Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970 (Pub. L.
91–596), the mission of NIOSH is to
conduct research and investigations on
work-related disease and injury and to
disseminate information for preventing
identified workplace hazards (Sections
20(a)(1) and (d)). Through the
development, organization, and
dissemination of information, NIOSH
promotes awareness about occupational
hazards and their control, and improves
the quality of American working life.
Previous research has shown that
trade associations and labor unions are
primary sources of occupational safety
and health (OSH) information. These
organizations know the industries they
represent and how to relate to the
various groups within their respective
industries. If NIOSH could learn more
about the OSH-related activities of these
organizations, it would be a first step in
routinely partnering with them to
communicate information which
impacts worker safety and health. For
example, through these organizations
NIOSH could learn about unmet
occupational safety and health
information needs in industry and
develop information and
communication products to address
these needs. Furthermore, with more
focused information on the safety and
health issues, NIOSH would be in a
better position to develop impact
communication products to serve this
community.
NIOSH proposes to obtain OSH
information from trade associations and
labor unions that represent each of the
eight NIOSH National Occupational
Research Agenda (NORA) industry
sectors. These sectors are Agriculture,
Forestry, and Fishing; Mining;
Construction; Manufacturing; Wholesale
and Retail Trade; Transportation and
Utilities; Public and Private Services;
and Healthcare and Social Assistance
Industries. The goals of this project are
to determine (1) Sources of occupational
safety and health (OSH) information
currently used by the different sector
trade associations and labor unions, (2)
OSH information presently being
disseminated by these different trade
associations and labor unions to their
members, (3) channels of
communication within the different
sector associations and unions used to
disseminate OSH information, (4) needs
for specific types of OSH information,
especially those needs not presently
being serviced, (5) OSH concerns of
industry trade associations and labor
unions, (6) awareness and perception of
NIOSH as a source of OSH information,
(7) use of NIOSH information services
(Web site, printed materials, 800
number, etc.), (8) usefulness of NIOSH
information to address their OSH
concerns and (9) credibility of NIOSH as
a trusted source of occupational safety
and health information. The ultimate
desired outcome of this project is to
reduce illness and injury for workers on
jobs and tasks which pose high risks.
Occupational Safety and Health
information will be collected from a
sample of trade associations and labor
unions for each of the NORA industry
sectors using a telephone survey.
NIOSH requests approval from OMB for
eighteen months for this information
collection.
To facilitate the survey, NIOSH will
interact with trade association and labor
organization staff within the industry
sectors to ensure that (1) the survey
questions developed appropriately
capture the needed information, (2) the
survey is well received and (3) that the
data obtained is representative of the
full range of occupations within the
targeted industry sectors. These
interactions will be structured to foster
professional relationships that will
improve NIOSH’s future communication
and information dissemination efforts to
these important partners. The process of
interacting and surveying the trade
associations and labor unions will allow
NIOSH to develop a benchmark against
which future efforts in partnership and
communication can be measured.
Working cooperatively on new solutions
and distribution of future
communication products will promote
cooperation and trust between NIOSH
and trade and labor groups for the
future. The total estimated annualized
burden hours are 376. There is no cost
to respondents for participation in the
survey except their time.
