Check if Federal Bureau of Prisons has OSH dataset #9

Open savannahmhunter opened 4 years ago

Check to see if the federal bureau of prisons has their own health and safety dataset similar to the OSHA data. See this policy https://www.bop.gov/policy/progstat/1600_011.pdf.

Here is a list of BOP research reports: https://www.bop.gov/resources/research_and_reports.jsp#

So far I am not seeing anything about OHS.

I also looked through the "All Records" available from past FOIA requests and I don't see anything related to OSH. https://www.bop.gov/foia/foia_available_records.jsp

I think we should send in a FOIA request (https://www.bop.gov/foia/index.jsp#tabs-5) and potentially look into sending in a research proposal (https://www.bop.gov/resources/research_and_reports.jsp).

very cool! have you ever FOIA'd before? you can do it via https://www.muckrock.com/ so everyone has access to what they send back. I just forwarded you what my initial FOIA looked like that covers some of the basics that prevents them from charging you money to fulfill your request. I bet they are slammed w/ FOIAs right now it may take years to hear back.
