NIOSH is seeking public comment on a draft action plan that responds to issues and recommendations in an April 2007 report by the Institute of Medicine (IOM). The IOM report, which represented findings from an independent review commissioned by NIOSH, addressed research at NIOSH’s National Personal Protective Technology Laboratory. The research aims at developing a modern, representative data base of facial sizes and shapes that will help in the design of respirator face masks for the increasingly diverse U.S. employee population.
The draft action plan, the IOM report, further details about the NIOSH research, and contact information for submitting public comments are available at http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/review/public/111.
