NSC State of the Response Report

NSC created the State of the Response: State Actions to Address the Pandemic report to better understand the safety implications of the states’ response to the century’s biggest threat to workplace safety.

The report assesses states’ efforts in five key areas based on recommendations from the SAFER effort, including:
  • Employer guidelines
  • Testing
  • Contact tracing
  • Mental health and substance use
  • Roadway safety

  • 12 states received an ‘on-track’ rating
  • 28 states and the District of Columbia received a ‘lagging’ rating
  • 10 states received an ‘off-track’ rating
