SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires Federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of the agency, including
whether the information shall have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information; (c)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; (d) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques
or other forms of information
technology; and (e) estimates of capital

agency. This includes the time needed
to review instructions; to develop,
acquire, install and utilize technology
and systems for the purpose of
collecting, validating and verifying
information, processing and

Proposed Project
Enhancing Mine Workers’ Abilities to
Identify Hazards at Sand, Stone, and
Gravel Mines—New—National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
NIOSH, under Pub. L. 91–173 as
amended by Pub. L. 95–164 (Federal
Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977),
and Pub. L. 109–236 (Mine
Improvement and New Emergency
Response Act of 2006) has the
responsibility to conduct research to
improve working conditions and to
prevent accidents and occupational
diseases in underground coal and metal/
nonmetal mines in the U.S.
Hazard recognition is only the first
step to a safe work environment. A
miner must be able to identify a hazard,
recognize the risk associated with the
hazard, and then make a decision of
how to mitigate the risk and perform the
NIOSH will conduct a laboratory-based
experimental research study.
Throughout the laboratory study,
participants will wear a light weight
eye-tracking system. Eye-movements
will be collected throughout the task so
that search patterns can be mapped
during analysis to determine differences
based on level of experience. NIOSH
will also collect identification accuracy
data to determine whether level of
experience affects the number of
hazards identified.
NIOSH will collect additional
measures related to perceived risk and
risk tolerance. Researchers will assess
perceived risk using a Risk Assessment
measure which has three parts: (1) An
overall evaluation of risk level; (2) an
evaluation of accident severity; and (3)
an evaluation of risk probability. This
will be done for each hazard included
in the study.
Researchers will assess Risk
Tolerance in two ways: (1) Through the
use of the Risk Propensity Scale
(Meertens & Lion, 2008) and (2) through
the use of Risk Tolerance Workplace
Scenarios (Lehmann, Haight, & Michael,
2009). NIOSH will also collect
qualitative data through the use of openended interview questions.
NIOSH will collect data from SSG
mine workers, SSG safety professionals,
and students knowledgeable of safety
and health issues at SSG mine sites but
who have limited work experience on a
mine site. The purposes of collecting
data from these three groups of
participants are to identify differences
in hazard recognition abilities and
determine how these abilities change—
and whether they change—with level of
experience and amount of experience
with hazards at SSG mine sites.
The total estimated burden hours are
160. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.
task safely. Risk is defined as the
combination of the likelihood an event
will occur and the adverse
consequences of that event (Brown &
Groeger, 1988). Risk perception, the
recognition of the risk inherent in a
situation, influences decision making
with regards to job safety (Hunter,
2002). Being able to recognize worksite
hazards and then accurately perceive
the associated risk are critical skills that
lead to the work behavior decisionmaking process that is used to eliminate
or reduce mining hazards related to
operations and maintenance of
machinery, operation of powered
haulage, material handling, etc. that can
result in injury or death.
Hazard recognition is integral to risk
perception, situational awareness, and
decision making—that is, if the mine
worker is unable to recognize worksite
hazards, then steps cannot be taken to
eliminate or mitigate them. Thus, the
mine worker must first be able to
recognize that a hazard is present in the
environment and then understand the
risk the hazard poses to their safety and
health in order to make the best
decision possible about how to deal
with the hazard. Hazard recognition is
a necessary skill for all mine workers;
therefore, a better understanding of the
hazard recognition process within the
mining environment is a critical need
that this research will fulfill for the
industry.
Given the aforementioned, the
objective of the project is to characterize
SSG mine workers’ ability to recognize
worksite hazards, to understand how
this ability relates to perceived and
measured risk as well as to other factors
internal and external to the SSG mine
worker.
In order to determine how SSG mine
workers’ recognize and understand the
risk associated with mine site hazards,

Proposed Project
Enhancing Mine Workers' Abilities to Identify Hazards at Sand,
Stone, and Gravel Mines--New--National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control and Prevention
(CDC).
Background and Brief Description
NIOSH, under Pub. L. 91-173 as amended by Pub. L. 95-164 (Federal
Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977), and Pub. L. 109-236 (Mine
Improvement and New Emergency Response Act of 2006) has the
responsibility to conduct research to improve working conditions and to
prevent accidents and occupational diseases in underground coal and
metal/nonmetal mines in the U.S.
Hazard recognition is only the first step to a safe work
environment. A miner must be able to identify a hazard, recognize the
risk associated with the hazard, and then make a decision of how to
mitigate the risk and perform the task safely. Risk is defined as the
combination of the likelihood an event will occur and the adverse
consequences of that event (Brown & Groeger, 1988). Risk perception,
the recognition of the risk inherent in a situation, influences
decision making with regards to job safety (Hunter, 2002). Being able
to recognize worksite hazards and then accurately perceive the
associated risk are critical skills that lead to the work behavior
decision-making process that is used to eliminate or reduce mining
hazards related to operations and maintenance of machinery, operation
of powered haulage, material handling, etc. that can result in injury
or death.
Hazard recognition is integral to risk perception, situational
awareness, and decision making--that is, if the mine worker is unable

or mitigate them. Thus, the mine worker must first be able to recognize
that a hazard is present in the environment and then understand the

Given the aforementioned, the objective of the project is to

to understand how this ability relates to perceived and measured risk
as well as to other factors internal and external to the SSG mine
worker.
In order to determine how SSG mine workers' recognize and

conduct a laboratory-based experimental research study. Throughout the

NIOSH will collect data from SSG mine workers, SSG safety
professionals, and students knowledgeable of safety and health issues
at SSG mine sites but who have limited work experience on a mine site.
The purposes of collecting data from these three groups of participants
are to identify differences in hazard recognition abilities and
determine how these abilities change--and whether they change--with
level of experience and amount of experience with hazards at SSG mine
sites.
The total estimated burden hours are 160. There are no costs to
respondents other than their time.
