Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 217 / Friday, November 9, 2007 / Notices
Background and Brief Description
Section 306 of the Public Health
Service (PHS) Act (42 U.S.C. 242k), as
amended, authorizes that the Secretary
of Health and Human Services (DHHS),
acting through NCHS, shall collect
statistics on the extent and nature of
illness and disability of the population
of the United States.
The National Death Index (NDI) is a
national data base containing
identifying death record information
submitted annually to NCHS by all the
state vital statistics offices, beginning
with deaths in 1979. Searches against
the NDI file provide the states and dates
of death, and the death certificate
numbers of deceased study subjects.
Using the NDI Plus service,
researchers have the option of also
receiving cause of death information for
deceased subjects, thus reducing the
need to request copies of death
certificates from the states. The NDI
Plus option currently provides the
International Classification of Diseases
(ICD) codes for the underlying and
multiple causes of death for the years
1979–2005. Health researchers must
complete administrative forms in order
to apply for NDI services, and submit
records of study subjects for computer
matching against the NDI file. A threeyear clearance is requested. There is no
cost to respondents except for their
time. The total estimated annual burden
hours are 182.

Proposed Project
Program Effectiveness Evaluation of
Workplace Intervention for Intimate
Partner Violence (IPV)—New—National
Center for Injury Prevention and Control
(NCIPC), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and brief description of the
proposed project
Intimate partner violence (IPV) affects
a substantial number of Americans, and
there has recently been increasing
recognition of the impact it has on the
workplace. In addition to direct impacts
(batterers often stalk or even attack IPV
victims at their place of work), IPV has
indirect impacts on the workplace
environment through lost productivity
due to medical leave, absenteeism, and
fear and distraction on the part of
victims and co-workers. The Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has contracted with RTI International
(RTI) to evaluate an ongoing workplace
IPV prevention program being
implemented at a national corporation.
The purpose of the proposed evaluation
is to document in detail the workplace
IPV prevention activities delivered by
the company, to determine the impact of
these activities on short-term and longterm outcomes, and to determine the

cost-effectiveness of the program. All
managers at the corporation will be
screened to assess training experiences.
Then, more in-depth surveys will be
done among managers who have not
had the corporation’s IPV training. We
will survey those 500 managers at
baseline, and 6 and 12 months later.
Manager surveys will focus on
knowledge/awareness of IPV and
company resources for IPV and number
of referrals for IPV assistance. We will
also survey two waves of employees of
those managers (N = 1500) using a webbased survey at baseline and 12 months
later to assess their self-evaluated
productivity, absenteeism, and
perceptions of manager behavior. We
will compare the responses of managers
(and their employees) who received the
IPV training in the study period (i.e.,
sometime between the baseline and 12
month surveys) with untrained
managers. The study will provide CDC
and employers information about the
potential effectiveness and costeffectiveness of workplace IPV
intervention strategies.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time to participate in
the interview. The estimated total
annualized burden hours are 1125.
