Progress on IID Objectives
The IID Cross-Sector Council has identified 6 objectives for the National Occupational Research Agenda. These objectives are currently being refined by the Council.
Cross-Sector Description
The IID Cross-Sector focuses on work-related immune diseases, such as irritant and allergic contact dermatitis, allergic rhinitis, asthma, or infectious disease, caused by work-related exposures. It also includes workplace exposures to chemicals that can be absorbed through contact with skin that may result in adverse health impacts.
