OUR COMMITMENT
An essential component of the Midwest Center for Occupational Health and Safety is the Outreach and Research to Practice (r2p) activities with other institutions, businesses, community groups and agencies located within the region and globally. The goal of our program is to address existing and emerging issues in occupational health and safety, and implement innovative strategies to meet the unique and diverse needs of our region.
MCOHS faculty, staff and students are actively engaged in outreach activities that have a positive impact on worker safety and health, including reaching underserved and underrepresented groups, meeting a regional or local need, and evaluating the impact of these activities.
This infographic fact sheet was developed by MCOHS students and faculty as a result of a special project in partnership with the Commissioner of the MN Department of Labor and Industry.
These fact sheets were developed by MCOHS students and staff as part of a research project evaluating the effects of the Minnesota Safe Patient Handling Act. Two different fact sheets were created.
