Small Business Assistance and OutreachOutputs: Research to PracticeHistorically, NIOSH has been a leader in applying research into workplace solutions that reduce injury and illness. Research to Practice (r2p) is a NIOSH initiative focused on the transfer and translation of research findings, technologies, and information into highly effective prevention practices and products which are adopted in the workplace. The goal of r2p is to increase workplace use of effective NIOSH and NIOSH-funded research findings. NIOSH continues to work with its partners to focus research on ways to develop effective products, translate research findings into practice, target dissemination efforts, and evaluate and demonstrate the effectiveness of these efforts in improving worker health and safety. This perspective is core to the mission of the Small Business Assistance and Outreach effort. Our success will be measured by our ability to translate NIOSH research into feasible workplace solutions that are disseminated widely to, and effectively implemented in, appropriate small businesses. In this way, NIOSH and small business partners will reduce workplace injury and illness. |
