## Abstract

Project Summary
The primary objectives of our proposed Fundamental-Plus project are to continue to maintain
capacity for enhanced occupational illness and injury surveillance in Connecticut, and to
perform more in-depth data analysis, investigations, and intervention activities to address new
workplace vulnerabilities and health and safety challenges. The Program’s specific aims
include surveillance activities, in-depth and follow-back investigations and assessments, as well
as development, implementation, and evaluation of public health policies in specific workplaces
and/or involving targeted worker health and safety issues of interest. These specific aims have
been developed to continue to expand capacity for occupational illness and injury surveillance in
Connecticut and to maintain continuity in our surveillance and intervention programs for the
duration of the project period. These programs and the staff they support provide the basis for
the protection of worker health in our state, not only through surveillance and intervention
activities but also through the generation of ideas for how to make our program activities more
efficient, effective, and beneficial to the Connecticut workforce.
