Worker Health Studies
ORAU Offers Robust Solutions to Meet Worker Health Studies Requirements
Whether you need a quick or an in-depth epidemiologic or worker health study, Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) combines and integrates a broad base of skills and capabilities to collect, manage, interpret, analyze and publish occupational exposure and worker health data.
As a leader in worker health studies, ORAU focuses its expertise in these areas:
Center for Epidemiologic Research
ORAU's Center for Epidemiologic Research can provide both long-term and short-term studies of health problems affecting workers for the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) and other customers.
Data Collection and Health Surveillance
Because epidemiologic research depends heavily upon large numbers of research participants and even greater quantities of data, developing plans for collecting and organizing worker health information is essential to achieving accurate results and conclusions.
Biostatistics/Statistics
Not only is statistical review a significant process in support of epidemiologic research, it is also a stand-alone service providing rigorous analysis and reporting of client data.
Hazards Assessments
ORAU analyzes accumulated data to identify potential workplace hazards that can result in occupational exposure and disease.
Information Technology Integration
Information technology is an integral part of the worker health studies process, allowing research data to be organized into manageable databases that facilitate a variety of analytical approaches.
