NIOSH to Survey Workplace Stress

According to a notice in the May 15 Federal Register, NIOSH is developing a telephone survey to learn more about workplace stress and how it affects ethnic and racial minorities, as reported in the Occupational Safety & Health Reporter. The information will help analyze the degree in which minority and nonminority workers are exposed to job stressors, how the stress impacts safety and health, and additional factors that protect these workers from stress.
