In accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
has submitted the information
collection request ‘‘Online training for
law enforcement to reduce risks
associated with shift work and long
work hours’’ to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for
review and approval. CDC previously
published a ‘‘Proposed Data Collection
Submitted for Public Comment and
Recommendations’’ notice on December
10, 2018 to obtain comments from the
public and affected agencies. CDC did
not receive comments related to the
previous notice. This notice serves to
allow an additional 30 days for public
and affected agency comments.
CDC will accept all comments for this
proposed information collection project.
The Office of Management and Budget
is particularly interested in comments
that:
(a) Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
(b) Evaluate the accuracy of the
agencies estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
(d) Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who

are to respond, including, through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses; and
(e) Assess information collection
costs.
To request additional information on
the proposed project or to obtain a copy
of the information collection plan and
instruments, call (404) 639–7570 or
send an email to omb@cdc.gov. Direct
written comments and/or suggestions
regarding the items contained in this
notice to the Attention: CDC Desk
Officer, Office of Management and

Proposed Project
Online training for law enforcement
to reduce risks associated with shift
work and long work hours—NEW—
National Institute for Occupational
Safety and Health (NIOSH), Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
Law enforcement officers work in
stressful and dangerous conditions to
enforce law and order, prevent crime,
and protect persons and property. Police
often work during the evening, at night,
and sometimes irregular and long hours.
Shift work and long work hours are
linked to many health and safety risks
due to disturbances to sleep, circadian
rhythms, and personal relationships.
These work schedules and inadequate
sleep are likely critical contributors to
the many health problems seen in
police: Shorter life spans, high
occupational injury rates, and burden of
chronic illnesses. One important
strategy to reduce these risks is training
programs to inform employers and law
enforcement officers about the risks and
strategies to reduce the risks. This is a
new Information Collection Request for
one year of data collection. The National
Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health is authorized to carry out this
data collection through Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970.

The purpose of this project is to
develop a training program to relay the
risks linked to shift work and long work
hours and give workplace strategies for
employers and personal strategies for
the officers to reduce the risks. Once
finalized, the training will be available
on the NIOSH website. The training will
be pilot tested with 30 recent graduates
of a police academy in their first field
experience and 30 experienced officers.
Study staff will recruit 60 law
enforcement officers during a 30-minute
phone call. All will work full time on
fixed night shifts. The pilot test will use
a pretest/posttest design to examine
sleep (both duration and quality),
worktime sleepiness, and knowledge
retained. Pre-test measures will be
collected two weeks before the training.
Post-test measures will be collected the
week of the training, one week after the
training and at weeks 11 and 12 of the
study. Additional post-test measures
will include feedback about the training
and if specific behaviors changed.
Before starting the pretest, the
respondent will sign an informed
consent form. The pilot pre-test will
start with the respondent filling out a 10
minute online survey that includes four
short surveys: (1) Demographic
information and work experience; (2)
the Epworth Sleepiness Scale; (3) the
Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index; and (4)
a knowledge test. The respondent will
be fitted with a wrist actigraph, which
will record activity and estimate the
times of sleep. The respondents will
keep an online sleep activity diary and
wear the actigraph continuously during
weeks one to four of the study. The
online sleep activity diary takes
approximately two minutes a day to
complete. The sleep diary and actigraph
are being used together to obtain a more
accurate timing of respondent’s sleep
and activity.
During the third week of the study,
the respondent will take the 2.5 hour
online training program. Immediately
after completing the training, the
respondent will take the post-test
knowledge test and will provide
feedback about the training including
barriers to using the training
information and what influential people

in their life would want them to do with
the training information. At the end of
week four, the respondent will return
the actigraph. No data collection will
occur during weeks five to 10 of the
study.
The second post-test period will be
weeks 11 and 12 of the study to gather
longer-term outcomes. At the beginning
of week 11, the respondents will be
fitted with an actigraph. The respondent
will wear the actigraph and complete
the sleep activity diary for the next 14
days. At the end of week 12 of the
study, respondent will complete the
Epworth Sleepiness Scale, Pittsburgh
Sleep Quality Index, and Changes in
Behaviors questionnaires. The
combined response time is five minutes.
The respondent will return the
actigraph and study ends.
The burden table lists three 10-minute
meetings during the post-test period
when they will return the actigraph at
the end of week four, be fitted with an
actigraph at the beginning of week 11
and return it at the end of week 12. The
respondents will complete the sleep
activity diary for 42 days, which will
take two minutes each day.
Study staff will use the findings from
the pilot test to make improvements to
the training program. The research team
will reinforce or expand training
content that showed less than desired
results on the pilot test. Potential
impacts of this project include
improvements in management practices
such as the design of work schedules
and improvements in officers’ personal
behaviors for coping with the demands
of shift work and long work hours. The
total estimated annualized burden hours
is 334. There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.

The burden table lists three 10-minute meetings during the post-
