NIOSHTIC-2 is a searchable bibliographic database of occupational safety and health publications, supported in whole or in part by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH).
NIOSHTIC-2 is updated continuously. At a minimum, each citation contains the author’s name or names, the title, and sufficient source information to facilitate retrieval, including the publication name, publication date, publication number(s), and pagination. Abstracts, key terms and links to full text are also provided when available. Additional citation information may be available under the "Full View" option.
NIOSHTIC-2 contains 43,375 occupational safety and health information resource citations. Each month approximately 70 current citations are added with an annual yearly yield over 800 new current NIOSH funded citations. Retrospective material is also added at about the same rate resulting in a total annual increase of approximately 1,600 citations. A significant portion of the citations (39,000) date from 1971 to the present. An additional 13,800 resources in NIOSHTIC-2 are publications dating from the 1930's to the present from the NIOSH Mining Safety & Health Research Laboratories (formerly the U. S. Bureau of Mines).

Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry numbers are unique numbers assigned by the Chemical Abstracts Service of the American Chemical Society to represent a specific chemical compound. The inclusion of these numbers in NIOSHTIC-2 allows users to search for the appropriate CAS number as opposed to searching for all known synonyms for a particular compound. CAS numbers are entered into CA field. CAS numbers are entered in the standard Chemical Abstracts Service format (e.g., 7439-92-1).
Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) codes are unique numbers assigned by the Office of Management and Budget to represent specific industrial operations. These codes can have two to four digits with increased specificity as the number of digits increases. Most SIC codes in NIOSHTIC-2 have four digits. The SIC codes are entered into SC field. SIC codes are used primarily on NIOSH field studies.
North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes are unique numbers assigned by the Office of Management and Budget to represent specific industrial operations. NAICS superseded SIC in 1997. These codes can have two to six digits with increased specificity as the number of digits increases. Most NAICS codes in NIOSHTIC-2 have six digits. The NAICS codes are also entered into SC field. NAICS codes are used primarily on NIOSH field studies.
CODEN are unique six character alphanumeric codes assigned to titles of publications by the International CODEN Service of the American Chemical Society. These codes are entered into the CD field. They are useful in retrieving all citations from a specific source without requiring the user to type a long title, and also prevent false drops when source titles are brief and contain common terms. These CODEN are also used during internal quality control to ensure the accuracy of the source titles.
In addition to the standard bibliographic data (author, title, and reference), each NIOSHTIC-2 record includes the NIOSH control number, accession numbers NTIS), submission date, keyword field, and an abstract. Open-ended keywords are included on a broad conceptual level but are not selected from a controlled vocabulary. Abstracts of 150-300 words contain specific information from the citation which complements the broad concepts expressed in the keywords. The sample record which follows is presented in the original format as provided to all vendors.

Abstract | Aviation crashes are a leading cause of occupational fatalities in Alaska, with Alaskan pilots having nearly 100 times the fatality rate of U.S. workers overall. A survey was designed to study pilot and company practices and attitudes in order to develop intervention strategies that would reduce aviation fatalities. Methods: Two surveys were administered: one of air carrier operators and one of active commercial pilots. Surveys from 153 air taxi and public-use operators were received at a 79% response rate. Results: There are almost 2000 pilots employed in Alaska during peak season by air taxi operators and public agencies. Surveyed operators and pilots generally agreed that improved weather information and regional hazards training would be effective ways to prevent crashes. Operators were more in favor of operator financial incentives (p < 0.05) and better pre-employment hiring checks on pilots (p < 0.05) compared with pilots' survey responses. There were 48% of pilots of large operators and 73% of pilots of small operators who considered their jobs to be at least as safe as other jobs. Conclusions: The results of operator-pilot comparisons suggest that financial pressures on operators may influence their views on what measures would be effective in preventing crashes, and that Alaskan pilots underestimate their occupational fatality risk. |
