Instructional and Navigational Guide

To begin working with the Dashboard, launch the BAWR Dashboard link in a supported web browser.

In order to use the BAWR Dashboard to its full capabilities, a supported web browser is mandatory. The browsers compatible with the BAWR Dashboard are the most recent versions of Firefox, Safari, Chrome, and Microsoft Edge. NOTE: Using an unsupported browser (such as Internet Explorer) might limit the functionality of the application.

Links to Government Websites

The Dashboard links to publicly available websites that are government-owned or government sponsored, unless directed not to by the agency that owns the site. Acceptable federal government-owned or government-sponsored website domains include .gov, .mil and .fed.us.

The Dashboard also links to quasi-government agencies and websites created by public sector/private sector partnerships, state and local government sites, and some government-sponsored websites that end in .com, .org, or .net.

Links to Non-Government Websites

The Dashboard also links to websites that are not government-owned or government-sponsored if these websites provide government information and/or services in a way that is not available on an official government website. The Dashboard provides these non-government websites as a public service only.

The Beryllium-Associated Worker Registry (BAWR) Dashboard neither endorses nor guarantees in any way the external organizations, services, advice, or products included in these website links. Furthermore, the Dashboard neither controls nor guarantees the accuracy, relevance, timeliness or completeness of the information contained in non-government website links.

After successfully navigating to the BAWR Dashboard, you will be directed to the home dashboard. The home dashboard is separated into two primary areas: the menu bar (left) and the content area (right). This easy-to-use navigation allows for intuitive and quick operation and is further examined below.

  • The side menu bar is a stationary element in the BAWR Dashboard and, as such, is always visible from any screen within the Dashboard. The menu bar holds the primary navigation.
  • The majority of user content is within the content area of the Dashboard. The content areas hold modules of content.
    • Some of the content graphics have roll-over areas to see additional information. When you have completed your review of the graphic, click on the ‘X’ button located in the upper right-hand corner of the graphic to return to the last page.

To print the full report, please navigate to the Printable Dashboard page. Then follow the instructions below to print from your browser.

To print individual sections of the report

You can select Adobe PDF in almost any Windows or macOS application while printing. Print to PDF creates an electronic copy of your file that you can save to disk. Printing a file to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer flattens the file.

Please ensure that Acrobat is installed on your computer, otherwise, the Adobe PDF printer or the Save As Adobe PDF option won't appear. Don’t have Acrobat? Try Acrobat for free.

Printing from Microsoft Edge

  1. At the top of the page, select Settings and more > Print, or press Ctrl+P in Windows or Command+P in macOS.
  2. Select Print using system dialog.
  3. Choose Adobe PDF as the printer in the Print dialog box.

Print from other Windows browsers

  1. Choose File or Menu > Print.
  2. Choose Adobe PDF as the printer in the Print dialog box.

To customize the Adobe PDF printer setting, click the Properties (or Preferences) button. (In some applications, you may need to click Setup in the Print dialog box to open the list of printers, and then click Properties or Preferences.)

Print from Mac OS

You can use the Save As Adobe PDF option to print a file to PDF on Mac.

  1. Choose File > Print.

Third party actions must be explicitly enabled."
