Presented by CDR Marie A. de Perio, MD, and Emily J. Haas, PhD, NIOSH: The purpose of this webinar is two-fold for the mining industry. First, Dr. Marie de Perio will provide a general overview on COVID-19 including what it is, how it spreads, and the current situation in the United States. Next, Dr. Emily Haas is using a small sample of survey results to provide information related to barriers being faced by mining industry workers and organizations, perceived risks toward COVID-19, and practical solutions on how companies can engage with workers during this time. Web resources are provided at the end that may be useful for the mining community. |
