Designed for health and safety managers in the workplace, the course offers strategies to improve health and safety programming using the concept of Integrated Health and Safety (IHS) -- a workplace management approach that closely aligns the traditionally separate "silos" of workplace health and safety programs.

The course provides a step-by-step how-to manual of IHS, ranging from data collection and health and safety measurement to population health management and the details of integrating health and safety teams. It also includes in-depth instruction in the use of key performance indicators (KPIs) and a new IHS measurement tool known as the "Integrated Health and Safety Index," which was developed by UL and ACOEM to help determine the long-term business value of employer health and safety programming.

Those who complete the course earn a certificate from UIC. In addition, ACOEM members who complete the course will also receive a customized course-related offering that will provide up to 10 hours of CME/MOC credit. The course was developed by health and safety experts Wayne Burton, MD; Jon Dopkeen, PhD; Ray Fabius, MD; Todd Hohn, CSP; Pam Hymel, MD; Andrew Kapp, PhD; and Ron Loeppke, MD. Introductory cost for the seven-module course and resulting certificate is $199.

Authored by Mark Russi, MD, MPH; Lawrence D. Budnick, MD, MPH; Amy Behrman, MD; William G. Buchta, MD; MPH; Michael J. Hodgson, MD, MPH; Melanie D. Swift, MD; and Lori A. Rolando, MD, the document is dedicated to the memory of Dr. Geoff Kelafant, who died tragically in March 2004. Dr. Kelafant was the original author of a set of guidelines for the practice of occupational health in medical centers and his work established a format and content upon which we continue to expand with the current guidance document.
