DOE-STD-1187-2005

3.1.6. Race: Provide race if captured by the site.

3.1.7. Employer Type: Indicate the worker's current employment type as

federal, contractor, sub-contractor, or visitor. Primary subcontractors

to a site integrating contractor are considered a contractor for the

Registry. Visitors include visiting scientists, graduate students,

research collaborators, etc.

3.1.8. First Hire on Site Date: Provide the date that the worker was hired

for the first time to work on the current DOE site (MM/DD/YYYY).

Personnel records for current workers normally are transferred to

successive contractors for a number of reasons and in particular in

order to calculate employee benefits. Personnel departments should

have this information. Medical records for current workers likewise

are transferred to successive medical surveillance providers. The date

of the worker's first medical examination should be in the current

medical files and may be a reasonable surrogate for the date first hired

to work on the current site if the true date is not available.

3.1.9. Year Employment Ended: Provide the year (YYYY) that the worker

separated from employment at the site. Current workers should have a

blank (null) value in this field. The value should remain blank (null) if

the employee transfers to a different employer on site. The year of the

employee's termination medical examination may be a reasonable

surrogate if the true date is not available.

3.1.10. Death Date: Date on which worker's death occurred. Provide in

MM/DD/YYYY format if possible.

3.1.11. Immediate Cause: Text describing the immediate cause of death.

Abstract the "immediate cause of death" section from the death

certificate.

3.1.12. First Cause: Text describing the first contributing cause of death.

Abstract the first "due to or as a consequence of" section from the

death certificate.

3.1.13. Second Cause: Text describing the second contributing cause of

death. Abstract the second "due to, or as a consequence of" section

from the death certificate.

3.1.14. Other Cause: Text describing other significant conditions identified

as contributing cause(s) of death, but not related to the immediate

cause of death.
