During the past 32 years, major advances have been made in recognizing, evaluating, and preventing occupational injuries, illnesses, and deaths. All have declined significantly. Despite these changes, unnecessary morbidity and mortality from occupational health hazards remain a significant burden to our workers, their families, and employers. The costs to our national health care system and the economy are substantial. More than 146.5 million people make up the civilian labor force, and more than 137.7 million of them were employed in 2003 according to the U.S. Department of Labor. About 7.3 million of these workers held more than one job. The U.S. labor force is becoming older and more diverse, and the supply of labor and jobs is shifting from goods-producing industries to services. Use of temporary, contract, and contingent laborers has increased along with alternative work arrangements such as job sharing and part-time work. These changes in the labor force and the nature of work present new challenges to assuring the safety and health of Americans in the workplace. This 2004 edition of the Worker Health Chartbook builds on the foundation established in the first edition, published in 2000. The Chartbook is intended as a resource for technical and nontechnical audiences, including agencies, organizations, employers, researchers, workers, and others with a need to know about occupational injury, illness, and death.

Surveillance is the cornerstone of prevention: It helps us identify new and emerging problems, track and monitor issues over time, target and evaluate the effectiveness of intervention efforts, and anticipate future needs and concerns. Those who have long struggled with these issues in the occupational setting will share my enthusiasm for this first edition of the Worker Health Chartbook. One of the primary goals in compiling the chartbook was to create a resource that could be used by anyone interested in workplace safety and health, including occupational safety and health practitioners, legislators and policy makers, health care providers, educators, researchers, and workers and their employers. In an attempt to reach the widest possible audience, we have made the chartbook available in printed and electronic form. Several Federal agencies worked together to organize the surveillance data sources required to produce this document. This is an important step toward identifying and filling significant gaps in occupational illness and injury information. The success of this initial effort has provided a framework for increased surveillance coordination between NIOSH and our partners in the future. The Worker Health Chartbook serves NIOSH and the occupational safety and health community well by placing surveillance in the hands of those who work to prevent occupational injuries and illnesses. The forethought and collaborative spirit that made all of this possible are commendable and bode well for future efforts to integrate Federal, State, and private-sector surveillance information.
