Prevention through Design (PtD) Plan

NIOSH published a final document, Prevention through Design – Plan for the National Initiative in November 2010.

NIOSH developed draft goals, performance measures, activities and timeframes, based on stakeholder input, to achieve the mission of preventing occupational injuries, illnesses, and fatalities through the inclusion of prevention principles in all designs that impact workers. These goals are included in the draft Prevention through Design Plan for the National Initiative. NIOSH did not receive any submissions to this request.
