Policy Development and Analysis
Because the ultimate goal is to prevent occupational and environmental disease, the Program is routinely involved in analyzing, developing and presenting testimony on policies directed toward this end. Examples include:
- • Safety standards for lead abatement
- • Protections for VDT operators
- • Indoor air quality
- • Environmental racism
- • Occupational disease in New York City
- • Occupational exposure to TB
