Memorandum
Date
March 31, 2020
From
William G. Lindsley
Co-Chair, NIOSH Institutional Review Board
Subject
IRB Approval of New NIOSH Protocol 19-NIOSH-83, “Improving Safety of Human-RobotInteraction” (Expedited)
To
Justin M. Haney
Project Officer, NIOSH/DSR
The NIOSH IRB reviewed the request for approval of new protocol 19-NIOSH-83, “Improving Safety
of Human-Robot-Interaction.” The IRB determined the study poses minimal risk to subjects. The
protocol was reviewed in accordance with the expedited review process outlined in 45 CFR
46.110(b)(1), categories (4), (6) and (7). Continuing review is not required for this protocol since it is
eligible for expedited review.
Due to the funding and collection of identifiable, sensitive information the project is
determined to be covered by a Certificate of Confidentiality under section 301(d) of the
Public Health Service Act.
If other institutions involved in this protocol are being awarded NIOSH funds through the CDC
Procurement and Grants Office (PGO), you are required to send a copy of this IRB approval to the
CDC PGO award specialist handling the award. You are also required to verify with the award
specialist that the awardee has provided PGO with the required documentation and has approval to
begin or continue research involving human subjects as described in this protocol.
Investigators are required to report incidents to the HRPP in accordance with CDC/NIOSH
policy and procedure. Any proposed changes to the protocol should be submitted as an
amendment to the protocol for NIOSH IRB approval before they are implemented.
If you have any questions, please contact the NIOSH Human Research Protection Program
(513) 533-8591 or e-mail: NIOSH IRB Mailbox.
