PROGRESS ON PROJECT

Under the WorldSurv (Work-Related Surveillance) Project, launched in 2005, we have developed a web-based data collection system and interactive websites for providing/sharing information and experiences.

There are three subsystems:

(1) Job-history registration system

(2) Reporting system for work-related asthma and dermatitis

(3) Needlestick injury reporting system (Web-episys)
For each reporting subsystem, we provide an interactive website, and we are also preparing to host national/international project websites, such as the Scientific Committee on Respiratory Disorders (SC-RD) of ICOH, and the training course of physicians for reading radiographs of pneumoconiosis, according to the ILO International Classification of Radiographs of Pneumoconiosis, jointly organized by the Asian Academic Societies for Occupational Medicine ("AIR Pneumo", Asian Intensive Reader of Pneumoconiosis).

Progress on project

In 2006, in collaboration with the Administration of Preventive Medicine of the Ministry of Health, a software programme on OH - 6 months and annual report - was developed.


With the financial support from the WHO, in December 2006, NIOEH organised two training courses on OH software of a regular reporting system. These courses were attended by 80 participants from provincial preventive medicine Centres and the Centres for Occupational Health and Environment in the provinces and industries. These activities contribute to improving knowledge and practices on occupational health, and to the development of human resources at provincial and industrial levels. These activities also strengthen the occupational health network throughout the country and establish the database on OH.
During 2007, this new software has served to report on various issues to NIOEH and the Ministry of Health. This OH information, received from the various provinces and industries, has included the following: working environment monitoring, occupational diseases examination and expertise, occupational injuries, human resources, OH equipment, etc.


List of outcomes already achieved by this project

The annual database on OH system over the country have received from this reporting system, including OH human resources, equipment, capacity of OH institutions in providing basic occupational health services, situation of working environment, workers’ health, occupational diseases and injuries, pesticide poisoning, implementation of legislative documents, OH trainings, etc. in enterprises in different provinces and industries. This reporting system will be improved in order to provide more indicators of OH institutions’ development and capacity in providing basic occupational health services to all workers, especially in term of the BOHS quality.

Summary of the project

Two reports are produced by Safe Work Australia on behalf of the Workplace Relations Ministers’ Council (WRMC), which is the council of Federal, State and Territory Ministers responsible for workplace relations matters in their respective jurisdictions. The New Zealand Minister is invited to attend WRMC as an observer. The Comparative Performance Monitoring Report, produced annually, is a comparison of occupational health and safety and workers’ compensation schemes in Australia and New Zealand, and the Comparison of Occupational Health and Safety Arrangements in Australia and New Zealand is produced every two years. Both reports provide measurable information to support policy making and program development by the Australian and New Zealand Governments on OHS and workers’ compensation.

Target group and/or beneficiaries

Asia and South Pacific

Major Milestones (list up to three dates and milestones)

This is a core Safe Work Australia data and analysis program and as such is ongoing.

Dissemination plan

The WRMC meet twice a year, with information being disseminated on their website (www.workplace.gov.au/cpm) and via a series of Joint Communiqués.

The GBD 2005 Study brings together a community of experts and leaders in epidemiology and other areas of public health research from around the world to measure current levels and recent trends in all major diseases, injuries, and risk factors, and to produce new and comprehensive sets of estimates and easy-to-use tools for research and teaching. It is led by a consortium including Harvard University, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington, Johns Hopkins University, the University of Queensland, and the WHO

Summary of the project

The Global Burden of Diseases, Injuries and Risk Factors Study (GBD 2005) is an evidence-based and scientific pursuit that updates the original 1990 GBD Study, which was commissioned by the World Bank to create a common metric to estimate the health loss associated with morbidity and mortality. The original study needs a comprehensive and systematic review, as today’s burden estimates contain some outdated and inconsistent information. Furthermore, patterns of disease and disability and their risk factors have altered dramatically and need to be reassessed. Safe Work Australia is providing funding and support for Dr Tim Driscoll, the Chief Investigator of the occupational component of the GBD 2005, to contribute further research time to the project, helping us to benchmark Australia against our international counterparts and to improve our understanding of the burden of work-related disease in Australia.

Target group and/or beneficiaries

Global

Major Milestones (list up to three dates and milestones)

The first round of analyses are due for completion December 2009. From Dec – June 2010 the core team will conduct peer-review and revision. The final results will be published in late 2010.

Dissemination plan

The project is conducted systematically and transparently; and its methods and results will be made available to the public via the GBD web site: http://www.globalburden.org/ In Australia the Safe Work Australian Council members (tripartite as well as representative of every State and Territory of Australia) exchange research findings with their constituents.

Funding source(s)

The overall GBD project is funded by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, and is led by a consortium including Harvard University, the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington, Johns Hopkins University, the University of Queensland, and the WHO. Safe Work Australia has provided additional funding to Dr Driscoll.

List of outcomes already achieved by this project

The GBD has been used by governments and non-governmental agencies to inform priorities for research, development, policies and funding.

List of additional outcomes expected from this project by 2012

This update is expected to provide new tools to markedly enhance the validity of estimations, particularly for ranking risk factors and disabilities, thus ensuring that global health research and policies are based on complete, valid, and reliable information.

Summary of the project

Most frequent type of occupational asthma is the isocyanate asthma. Clinical diagnosis and differentiation of isocyanates as the cause of occupational asthma is difficult. The gold-standard test, specific inhalation challenge, is successfully used in our outpatient clinic. However with the increasing use of isocyanates worldwide a need for an efficient routine laboratory test has emerged.

Due to the unsatisfactory serological IgE tests based on poorly characterized isocyanate-albumin epitopes, the available tests recognize only small proportion of affected workers. In order to characterize biomarker of exposure in a larger population of occupationally exposed workers we will characterize the reaction products of isocyanates and albumin with a help of mass spectrometry analyses.
