1 Green and Healthy Jobs A report by Helen Chen, J.D., M.S., Labor Occupational Health Program, University of California at Berkeley
2 CPWR The Center for Construction Research & Training Non-Profit funded by: NIOSH DOE NIEHS Leader in applied research, training and service to the Construction Industry.

4 Green Construction An opportunity to mitigate climate change* A threat in terms of risks to workers* Looking for opportunities to elevate worker health and safety as a priority in the green building sector!!!!
5 Different Definitions of Green Jobs: Preserve & enhance environmental quality Be economically sustainable (living wage) Promote the health and safety of workers Doesn t compromise the health and safety of surrounding communities
6 Green = Sustainable? If a worker dies on a green job, is it sustainable? LEED jobs favor environmental issues over occupational safety and health No statistical difference between green and non-green projects in terms of construction worker safety and health. Green jobs safe jobs
7 Classifying and categorizing green jobs (construction and non-construction) Renewable energy generation Transportation Energy efficiency Water conservation Green construction Energy Trading Environmental protection Recycling and waste reduction
8 Classification within the green construction sector Renewable energy generation Solar energy installation Wind turbine service Energy efficiency Boiler technicians Insulation installers HVAC installers / maintenance technicians Green construction Green increased demand Green enhanced skills
9 Occupational hazards in green construction New technology hazards: Solar Power Wind Power Weatherization Existing products increased hazards: Skylights Atriums Recycling Indoor Air Quality
10 New Technology
11 More & Different Insulating Materials
12 Green Construction Jobs More atriums to increase natural light More use of scaffolding, so more risk of falls NORA identifies scaffolding as one of the major risk factors for falls
13 Green Construction Jobs More skylights Not built to withstand heavy loads Usually don t have guardrails
14 Green Construction Jobs More recycling of construction debris More ergonomic stress More punctures More slips and falls More struck by
15 Green Construction Jobs More use of building materials with postconsumer recycled content Coal, or fly ash in concrete Arsenic, mercury, etc Grinding / drilling cured concrete
16 Green Construction Jobs More weatherization Electrical - knoband-tube wiring in older homes Electrical exterior caulking near power lines Lead and asbestos exposure Isocyanate / other
17 NIOSH s Top Compelling Activities #3 Include OSH into green and sustainable standards as they are being updated #4 Include OSH in procurement and construction #6 Integrate safety and health into green elements of contractor specifications #9 Develop, validate and disseminate a LEED-like OSHA rating system
18 We can quantify LEED rates jobs on: Sustainable sites Water efficiency Energy and atmosphere Materials and resources Indoor environmental air quality Innovation and design So let US rate jobs on: Owner commitment to safety Safety and health professionals / contracts Safety and health planning Training and education Employee involvement There is a tool in development to do this
19 LEED-like OSH rating system
20 Recommendations for elevating construction safety as a priority in green building Incorporate worker health into the green jobs debate Promote prevention through design (PtD) Incorporate worker health into green building certification programs Promote construction safety training
