36. Agenda • Occupational Health Requirements • Medical Certification and Surveillance • Odds and Ends • Take Home Points

37. What is Occupational Health?It is the promotion and maintenance of the highest degree of physical, mental and social well-being of workers in all occupations by preventing departures from health, controlling risks and the adaptation of work to people, and people to their jobs.

38. WSMR OH Medical Readiness 650 employees are enrolled in various Medical Certifications and Medical Surveillance Programs. These personnel are consistently At or above 92% readiness. ATEC Organizations (Army Air) Garrison Organizations (CYS, FF, DPW, IRP, LCR, RO, Safety, PRP) Tenant Organizations (ARL, CCM, MT, McAfee, Navy, Safety, SVAD, TMDE) -------------------------------------------------- Personal Reliability Program, Individual Reliability Program, Fire Fighters and CYS are always close to 100% ready

39. Occupational Health Requirement • It’s the law - • Occupational Safety & Health Act (1970) assures “Every U.S. worker safe and healthful conditions” • OSHA standards are laws • DoD & DA regulations require compliance • Crucial to have up to date worker health programs or we are liable

40. Occupational Health ServicesDODI 6055.05 • Surveillance for stressor contact • Certification evaluations • Treatment for on the job injury • Medical case management • Accommodation evaluation • Worksite evaluation • Health promotion

41. Staff Occupational Health • McAfee US Army Health & Dental Clinic MD NCMA OH NCIOC PA-C NCMA EMT/OH Tech RN BS RN BS OH TECH Inbound: 2 Medical Assistant Support Staff (MSA)

42. OH Process- 1,2,3 • One – Demand Signal • Certification Demand Signal From Work Group • Medical Surveillance Demand Signal From IH • Two – Schedule & Complete Evaluation • Monthly roster to each work group of exams due/past due • Clinic visits minimized to extent consistent with medical necessity • Three – Report • Employee – Report of Clinic Visit • Supervisor – Report of Clinic Visit • IH – Weekly meetings • New Initiative • Monthly meeting with all supervisors for sharing of ideas and information PRP and Directorates to ^ MRC #’s

43. Medical Certification • Post Offer Pre-Placement Exam (New Hires) • Respiratory Protection Program • DOT Commercial Driver License • Explosive Handler • Climate Chamber • Nuclear Personal Reliability Program (PRP)- Guards, Reactor Operator, IDS • Individual Reliability Program (IRP) – Police & Gate Guards • Fuel Handler • Fire Fighter/HAZWOPER • Animal Handler • Pesticide Applicator • Waste Water Worker • High voltage Worker

44. Respiratory Protection Program (RPP) • What are the components of RPP? • Assessment of protection needed, medical clearance for use, fit testing, training, record keeping. • What is the medical clearance process? • Determine it is safe for an employee to use a particular respirator, for a particular task. • How can we know what type of respirator is used? • IH and Supervisors work collaboratively to determine the nature of respiratory hazard and what protection is needed.

45. Commercial Drivers License [CDL] Medical examiners now must be certified and participate in National Registry [Dept. of Transportation] DOT issue medical certificates for CDL OH MUSAHC does not have accurate list of individuals at WSMR who hold or are required to hold Commercial Drivers Licenses Employees at WSMR have reported meeting the CDL requirement for their work at WSMR by using private medical examiner for their medical certificate Uniformity/consistency would be served by a WSMR policy regarding who is required to have CDL and the process for getting medical certificates (MUSAHC & JAG working resolution)

46. Medical Surveillance • Noise • Laser Use • Microwave • Silica • Lead • Asbestos • Radiation

47. Hearing Conservation Program (HCP) • Why do we measure hearing? • Safety issue • Who is in HCP? • Employees who work in areas that IH has found to be a noise hazard.

48. Other Components • Return to work evaluation (after injury/illness) • Workers’ Compensation (FECA) Assistance • On the Job Injuries (OJIs)- We watch for trends and report them to Safety • Proactive rather than reactive • Back injuries 30% of all claims, building moves is leading cause at WSMR • Fitness for duty evaluation (criteria) • Medical consultation to industrial hygiene • Termination/retirement physicals

49. Take Home Points • OH is not primary care medicine • Duty to employee and government • Focus on population health (not individual) • Required by law (OSHA, DA) • McAfee is no longer a Emergency • *Do not drive to McAfee CALL 911 or 678-1234
