DOE-STD-1187-2005

previously identified site codes.

5.1.2.

Unique ID: This is an encrypted identification number unique to each

beryllium-associated worker. It is assigned by the site and is used to

link multiple records to one worker. Every record submitted to the

Data Center must include the Unique ID. Sites enrolled in the IISP

should use the workers' IISP identifiers as the Unique ID.

5.1.3.

Status Code: Indicates whether this is a new record (N) to be added

to the beryllium work history or a delete record (D) for a record that

has been previously submitted to the registry. To make corrections to

a previously submitted record the site should submit both a delete

record (D) and a corresponding new record (N) that will replace the

deleted record for the worker. The aggregate beryllium work history

data may contain only one record for each Job Start Date reported for a

worker. Therefore, a delete record (D) requires matching values for

the Site Code, Unique ID, and Job Start Date.

5.1.4.

Organization Code: Provide the worker's department, division, or

organization code or number. The Registry coordinator must provide

a data dictionary (the code and the organization associated with that

code) to the Data Center.

5.1.5.

First Beryllium Job Start Date: Provide the recorded or reported

date the worker began working in the first job in which he or she was

potentially or actually exposed to beryllium (MM/DD/YYYY). For

current workers, medical records are normally the source of this

information since they are transferred to successive medical

surveillance providers and kept in the clinic. If records are not

accessible the date should be the date reported by the employee to the

best of his or her recollection.

5.1.6.

Activity: A high level roll-up category that is a general description of

the job function. Provide a one-character code as selected from one of

the following categories.

5.1.6.1. Management (M) Predominately office work at a desk; first

level supervisor and above.

5.1.6.2. Administrative Support (A) Predominately office-work at a

desk but can include tasks that involve visiting, production

areas, shops and labs. This category includes but is not

limited to information technology, clerical, and secretarial

staff.

5.1.6.3. In-House Professionals (I) Predominately office work at a

desk typically without supervisory responsibilities.
