Wisconsin
Fatality
Assessment and Control Evaluation (FACE) Program
The Fatality Assessment and Control Evaluation (FACE) Program
operated in Wisconsin from 1995 - 2006. It was designed to identify and study fatal occupational
injuries. To do this the FACE Program collected basic information about all
fatalities in Wisconsin and conducted in-depth studies of fatalities that
are: machine-related, highway work zone, or youth workers under the age
of 18. The Wisconsin FACE Program was funded by the National
Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) (exit DHFS) and
upheld the
objectives set forth by NIOSH "to identify work situations at high
risk for fatal injury and formulate and disseminate prevention
strategies to those who can intervene in the workplace". For
more information about the Wisconsin FACE Program, please read our brochure
