Description

The National Institute of Child Health and Human Development (NICHD), the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), and the Office of Behavioral and Social Sciences Research (OBSSR) of the National Institutes of Health and the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention invite applications for cooperative agreements (U01) to participate in a research network that will design model protocols for intervention studies that examine the health consequences of workplace policies and practices. These interventions should be designed to improve employees' abilities to more successfully meet work and family demands, thereby improving worker and family health. The purpose of the RFA is to support the development of research plans focused on the interrelations among work, family, health, and well-being that are state of the art in conceptualization and measurement techniques. Th!
e model protocols that are developed will serve as the basis for a future initiative to support a set of multi-site interventions to evaluate which types of workplace policies and practices are the most beneficial for the health and well-being of workers, their families (including their children and other dependents), and workplaces.
