community. The data will be translated 

for practitioners and others engaged in 

parent training work. Data that are 

collected will be stored physically and 

electronically by the contractors 

collecting the respective data at their 

offices. De-identified electronic 

database(s) will be transferred to CDC. 

Any hard copies of data will be 

destroyed after the data has been 

successfully entered, cleaned and 

backed up into the database. We 

anticipate that the surveys will take 

between 15 minutes to 45 minutes to 

complete (depending on which survey 

is being completed). 

The proposed data collection fits into 

the National Center for Injury 

Prevention and Control Research 

Agenda Priorities in Preventing Child 

Maltreatment. Research is essential to 

ensure effects on parenting are achieved 

using the new delivery platform. If 

Essentials for Parenting Toddlers and 

Preschoolers is successful at increasing 

positive parenting and safe, stable, 

nurturing relationships and 

environments for children, then CDC 

has a resource that can be easily and 

freely disseminated to communities. 

Ultimately, the results of the work will 

be disseminated to researchers, states, 

and the public. 

There are no costs to the respondents 

other than their time. The total 

estimated annual burden hours are 

1,950.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The NIOSH Current 

Intelligence Bulletin: Reproductive 

Risks Associated with Hazardous Drug 

Exposures in Healthcare Workers and 

Recommendations for Reducing 

Exposures reviews and summarizes all 

published studies on adverse 

reproductive effects of occupational 

exposures to antineoplastic drugs. 

Hazardous drugs, especially 

antineoplastic drugs, are some of the 

most potent teratogenic chemicals 

known. In addition, they can affect 

germinal cells, reproduction, and 

exposures can result in spontaneous 

abortion. This document summarizes 

results of animal studies, occupational 

epidemiology studies, as well as adverse 

effects that have been observed in 

patients treated with these drugs. While 

workplaces should be safe for all 

employees, the unique sensitivity of the 

developing fetus and the infant who is

breastfeeding necessitate the need for 

extra precautions when these drugs are 

handled by both males and females who 

are trying to conceive, women who may 

become or who are pregnant, and 

women who are breast feeding. 

Recommendations for temporary 

reassignment of duties or alternative 

duty are included in this guidance 

document. 

Information Needs: Additional data 

and information are needed to assist 

NIOSH to protect the reproductive 

health of healthcare workers who come 

in contact with antineoplastic drugs. 

Information is needed for: (1) 

Appropriateness of guidance, (2) Effect 

on work practices, (3) Confidentiality 

issues, (4) Financial impact. 

NIOSH seeks to obtain materials, 

including published and unpublished 

reports and research findings, to 

evaluate: 

• Relevant publications not included 

in this document 

• Institutional and organizational 

policies in effect 

• Other relevant information related 

to this topic

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: The National Institute 

for Occupational Safety and Health 

(NIOSH) is evaluating the impact of the 

National Occupational Research Agenda 

(NORA, http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/ 

nora/). NORA is a partnership program 

to stimulate innovative research and 

improved workplace practices. Begun in 

1996, NORA has become a research 

framework for NIOSH and the nation. 

Diverse parties collaborate to identify 

the most critical issues in workplace 

safety and health. Partners work 

together to develop goals and objectives 

for addressing these needs. Participation 

in NORA is broad, including 

stakeholders from universities, large and 

small businesses, professional societies, 

government agencies, and worker 

organizations. 

The program entered its second 

decade in 2006 with a new sector based 

structure to better move research to 

practice within workplaces. The 

national agenda is developed and 

implemented through the NORA Sector 

Councils. Each Council develops and 

maintains an agenda for its sector 

(http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/nora/). The 

collection of national sector agendas is 

the agenda for the nation for 

improvements in occupational safety 

and health through research and 

partnerships. Representing all 

stakeholders, the councils use an open 

process to set goals, develop strategies, 

encourage partnerships, and promote 

improved workplace practices. 

NIOSH is reviewing the 

accomplishments of the second decade 

of NORA and is preparing for the third 

decade, which will start in 2016. As a 

part of this review, NIOSH is seeking 

comments from partners and the public 

to evaluate the second decade and plan 

for the third decade of NORA. NIOSH is 

requesting the following feedback: 

Please describe the most significant 

successes and challenges of your engagement 

with NIOSH during the second decade of 

NORA (2006 to present).
