Proposed Project Quarantine Station Illness Response Forms: Airline, Maritime, and Land/ Border Crossing (0920–0821, exp. 08/ 31/15)—Revision—National Center for Emerging and Zoonotic Infectious Diseases, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Background and Brief Description CDC is requesting a revision to a currently approved information collection, Quarantine Station Illness Response Forms: Airline, Maritime, and Land/Border Crossing). This revision seeks to incorporate the changes that resulted from activities undertaken during the response to Ebola. These changes include two major components, both of which have been given previous emergency clearance by OMB under Control Number 0920–1031 and 0920– 1034, with an expiration date of April 30, 2015. As a part of this revision, CDC is requesting the full three year approval and 12 months of burden for the following: The incorporation of two public health screening forms that are currently used to assess risk for Ebola in travelers coming to the United States from countries experiencing widespread transmission of the disease. These forms are the United States Traveler Health Declaration and a completely revised PO 00000 Frm 00073 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 Ebola Entry Screening Risk Assessment Form, each given approval from OMB under OMB Control No 0920–1031. The additional burden requested for the English versions of the health declaration and the risk assessment form, as well as the French and Arabic translation guides for the health declaration and risk assessment forms, is 13,664 hours. In this revision, CDC is maintaining the ability to use the Ebola Entry Screening Risk Assessment Form in the event that a traveler is identified as ill on a U.S.-bound flight prior to arrival. In the no material or non-substantive change to a currently approved collection granted by OMB on 9/18/ 2014, CDC requested 100 respondents and 5 hours of burden. Because the risk assessment form is more comprehensive, it requires more time for a traveler to complete the assessment. CDC is requesting an additional 20 hours of burden for the purpose of assessing ill travelers, for a total of 25 hours of burden. No additional respondents are requested. CDC is also requesting the incorporation of a telephonic, automated survey administered through the Interactive Voice Response (IVR) phone system, which asks travelers if they have developed a fever or any other symptoms potentially indicative of Ebola exposure (OMB Control No 0920– 1034). The IVR system would be implemented to assist state and local public health authorities with active monitoring of individuals coming to the United States from countries affected by the current Ebola outbreak. Use of this information collection tool would be voluntary and provides a cost- and timesaving mechanism for supporting states with their active monitoring responsibilities. The additional 12month annualized burden requested for the use of the IVR system is approximately 71,400 hours. No revisions are requested to the Air Travel, Maritime Conveyance or Land Travel Illness and Death Investigation forms or burden associated with these forms. The current burden associated with these routine information collections is 314 hours.

This research assesses best practices for communicating and employing a strategic health and safety management system (HSMS) to facilitate workers’ health and safety behaviors, including ways that lateral communication from management influences worker perceptions and behaviors. Currently, ambivalence exists about how to strategically communicate aspects of an HSMS top-down in the mining industry. Research indicates that, to answer questions about effectively using an HSMS to improve safety, research needs to follow a sample of workplaces over time, measuring the introduction or utilization of an HSMS and then measuring outcomes of interest at the workplace level and worker level. Therefore, analyzing workers’ perceptions of the organization’s HSMS, leaders’ implementation of the organization’s HSMS, and communication gaps between these two groups, may provide more insight into the best, most feasible practices and approaches to worker H&S performance within a system. This project is initiating such an approach by implementing a series of multilevel intervention (MLI) case studies that assess the utility of a safety system that includes aspects of both safety management on the organizational level and behavior-based safety on the worker level.

Background and Brief Description

    CDC is requesting a revision to a currently approved information
