Personal Flotation Devices (PFDs) and
Commercial Fishermen: Preconceptions
and Evaluation in Actual Use—
Reinstatement with Change—(OMB
Number 0920–0787, expiration date 8/
31/2010) National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
NIOSH has the responsibility under
Pub. L. 91–596 section 20 (Occupational
Safety and Health Act of 1970) to
conduct research relating to innovative
methods, techniques, and approaches
for dealing with occupational safety and
health problems.
Commercial fishing is one of the most
dangerous occupations in the United
States, with a fatality rate 30 times
higher than the national average. Most
fishermen who die on the job drown
subsequent to a vessel sinking (52%) or
fall overboard (31%). Because drowning
is the leading cause of death for
commercial fishermen, its prevention is
one of the highest priorities for those
who work to make the industry safer.
The risk of drowning for commercial
fisherman is high, yet most fishermen
do not wear Personal Flotation Devices
(PFDs) while on deck. Of the 182
fishermen who died from falls
overboard between 2000 and 2011 none
of them were wearing a personal
flotation device (PFD). Many were
within minutes of being rescued when
they lost their strength and disappeared
under the surface of the water.
NIOSH recently conducted a study to
establish a baseline understanding of
Alaska fishermen’s perceptions of risk,
safety attitudes, and beliefs about PFDs;
and to evaluate a variety of modern
PFDs with commercial fishermen to
discover the features and qualities that
they like and dislike. Based upon these
results, NIOSH developed an intensive
risk communication strategy to raise
awareness to newer (potentially more
satisfactory) PFD models, to address
barriers, and to encourage increased
PFD use among fishermen working in
Alaska.
The purpose of this study is to first,
determine if fishermen’s perception of
risk, safety attitudes, and beliefs about
PFDs has shifted or remained the same
since the implementation of the initial
survey (2008–2009); and second, to
evaluate the effectiveness of the NIOSH
intensive risk communication
intervention.

NIOSH is requesting Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
approval to administer a survey to
fishermen operating in Alaska fisheries.
This questionnaire will contain
questions that measure fishermen’s risk
perceptions, safety attitudes, and beliefs
about PFDs, as well as recognition and
influence of NIOSH risk communication
activities. The questionnaire will take
approximately 20 minutes to complete.

of previous research, NIOSH has gained
a baseline understanding of fishermen’s
reasons for not wearing PFDs. With this
empirical data at hand, an intensive risk
communication intervention has been
developed to address fishermen’s
concerns and remove the barriers that
are currently in place.
There are no costs to respondents
other than their time.

Consistent with the previous OMBapproved data collection protocol, the
sample size was determined to be 400
total respondents to achieve a 95%
confidence level. Two hundred
independent respondents will be
sampled just prior to the 2014 season
and an additional two hundred will be
sampled just prior to the 2015 season.
This study has the potential to greatly
benefit the fishing industry. As a result
