Abstract: NIOSH wishes to conduct a baseline study to see how trade associations and labor unions use NIOSH products. NIOSH will obtain information from organizations within 8 industrial sectors. This will be the first opportunity for NIOSH to systematically obtain information about occupational safety and health 'product' distribution and use from business/professional oriented trade associations and labor unions. The data collection will answer questions such as which channels of communication are currently used by these groups to disseminate occupational safety and health information, what are the current needs for specific types of workplace occupational safety and health information-especially what needs are presently not being serviced, what is the perception of NIOSH as a source of workplace safety and health information.
