The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH/CDC) and the National Occupational Research Agenda (NORA) Liaison Committee are seeking nominations for the NORA Partnering Award for Worker Health and Safety. This award honors exemplary teamwork, innovative thinking, and strong science in the interest of worker health and safety. It was created to recognize organizations that are participating in NORA-related collaborative research partnerships that develop new equipment, practices, procedures, products, or policies that protect worker health and safety by reducing hazardous exposures and/or adverse outcomes. The award is an organizational award, not an individual award, and will be presented at the third biannual NORA Symposium, which will be held in Washington, DC, on June 27, 2001. The deadline for nominations to be received is March 1, 2001. For additional information, contact Dr. Anita Schill at aschill@cdc.gov or 202/401-3740, or visit NIOSH.
