Organizational Factors and Office Workers’ Health After the World Trade Center Terrorist Attacks: Long-Term Physical Symptoms, Psychological Distress, and Work Productivity
No full textObjective: To assess if organizational factors are predictors of workers' health and productivity after the World Trade Center attacks.Methods: We conducted a survey of 750 workers and compared those who had direct exposures to the World Trade Center attacks (south of Canal Street workers; primary victims) with those less directly exposed (north of Canal Street workers; other victims and non-victims).Results: South of Canal Street workers reported headache more frequently than north of Canal Street workers did (P = 0.0202). Primary victims reported headache and cough more frequently than did other victims and non-victims (P = 0.0086 and 0.0043, respectively). Defensive organizational culture was an independent predictor of cough and job stress, and job stress was an independent predictor of on-the-job productivity losses.Conclusion: Organizational variables may modify health and productivity outcomes after a large-scale traumatic event in the workplace.This research was supported in part by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Grant 5 R21 OH007713-02, and the NIEHS sponsored UMDNJ Center for Environmental Exposures and Disease, Grant NIEHS P30ES005022.This is a non-final version of an article published in final form in Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (50(2):112-25, 2008 Feb) a publication of Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins.

Bessemer Building
No full textFrontal view of the south elevation; The impressive new entrance and reception of the Bessemer Building forms part of the 10 year refurbishment and creation of a new London Centre for Nanotechnology at Imperial College. (The original building dates from the 1960s). The entrance was designed to be in keeping with the renewed Bessemer façade, for instance with pink glass as an architectural feature. The installation of a platform lift adjacent to the entry stairway will provide DDA compliant access. As part of this project a suite of fully AV equipped seminar rooms and administrative offices was created for use by Faculty staff and ICT. The college engaged Architects Sheppard Robson to design the building's impressive new entrance area and Elecro supplied a specialised team of mechanical engineers to install and upgrade all mechanical and electrical services on the reception area and corridor. The pink color is extended into the interior design. Source: Sheppard Robson [firm, website]; http://www.sheppardrobson.com/ (accessed 6/15/2009

Assessing and Improving Bioterrorism Preparedness Among First Responders: A Pilot Study
No full textFollowing the September 11 terrorist attacks, the vulnerability of the United States became apparent. It also became evident that there was a need for respiratory protection. The purpose of this study was to determine the prior knowledge and perceptions of emergency medical technicians with respect to bioterrorism and to enhance their current knowledge to better prepare them for possible future events. The study was also designed to create a certified pool of trainers who would be capable of fit-testing all squad members with N-100 respirators. Representatives were recruited from each of the Hunterdon County, New Jersey, rescue squads. Participants attended a train-the-trainer session. Before the session and after, they were tested on knowledge and perceptions about relevant bioterrorism issues and were given an educational presentation on bioterrorism, threatening agents, respiratory health, and proper protection, along with being introduced to the fit-test steps for N-100 respirator masks. The response rate for the training was 94 percent. The authors measured and compared responses on the pre-test and the post-test with respect to knowledge, behaviors, and perceptions, and the results indicated a change following the training. The study thus provided evidence that the train-the-trainer program is an effective method of providing public health preparedness training to members of community organizations and agencies.Reprinted with permission from the Journal of Environmental Health, a publication of the National Environmental Health Association, www.neha.org.Supported by NIEHS Grants ES07148 and ES05022 and the Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences Institute.Peer reviewe
