The objectives were to identify the impact of ergonomic work environment exposures on the risk of disability pension. A representative sample of 8475 employees of the total working population in Denmark were interviewed regarding work environment exposures and followed in a national register with data on granted disability pension. For women, approximately 34% of the disability pension cases were attributable to ergonomic work environment exposures. For men, 21% of the disability pension cases were attributable to ergonomic work environment. Ergonomic work environment, especially physically demanding work, working with hands lifted and repetitive work, are areas of intervention at the workplace that can facilitate and prolong labour market participation. The study provides estimates for the association between ergonomic exposures at work and administrative, cost-related measures of work disability in a large population-based longitudinal cohort study over 14 years. Approximately 21% for men and 34% for women of the disability pension cases were attributable to ergonomic work environment exposures.
目的是确定人体工程学工作环境暴露对残疾养老金风险的影响。对丹麦全部劳动人口中具有代表性的 8475 名员工进行了工作环境暴露调查，并在国家登记处进行了随访，该登记处记录了残疾养老金发放情况。对于女性，大约 34%的残疾养老金案例归因于人体工程学工作环境暴露。对于男性，21%的残疾养老金案例归因于人体工程学工作环境。人体工程学工作环境，特别是体力要求高的工作、手臂抬起和重复性工作，是工作场所干预的领域，可以促进和延长劳动力市场参与。该研究在一项超过 14 年的大型基于人群的纵向队列研究中，提供了工作中人体工程学暴露与行政性、与成本相关的工作残疾衡量指标之间关联的估计。大约 21%的男性和 34%的女性残疾养老金案例归因于人体工程学工作环境暴露。
