a database of near-misses (NM), minor injuries, and OSHA recordable injuries was established at a mid-size electrical manufacturing plant as part of injury prevention efforts. The utility of a NM reporting system was evaluated by estimating its impact on the annual incidence of minor and OSHA recordable injuries.
logistic regression was performed to examine the effects of predictor variables (year, age, duration of employment) on the type of event (NM, minor, OSHA recordable). Poisson regression was fit to model the annual rate of OSHA recordable injuries as a function of time.
1690 events were reported between 1999 and 2006 including 261 NM, 1205 minor, and 205 OSHA recordable injuries. The expected rate of OSHA recordable injuries decreased by 0.84 (95% CI: 0.73-0.97) annually.
the implementation of a NM reporting system was associated with decrease in the rate of OSHA recordable injuries. NM reporting systems may be valuable injury interventions in manufacturing.
作为伤害预防工作的一部分,一家中型电器制造工厂建立了一个接近错失(NM)、轻伤和 OSHA 可记录伤害的数据库。通过估计 NM 报告系统对轻伤和 OSHA 可记录伤害的年度发生率的影响,评估了 NM 报告系统的实用性。
使用逻辑回归分析预测变量(年份、年龄、就业时间)对事件类型(NM、轻伤、OSHA 可记录)的影响。使用泊松回归来模拟 OSHA 可记录伤害的年度发生率与时间的函数关系。
1999 年至 2006 年间共报告了 1690 起事件,包括 261 起 NM、1205 起轻伤和 205 起 OSHA 可记录伤害。OSHA 可记录伤害的预期发生率每年下降 0.84(95%CI:0.73-0.97)。
实施 NM 报告系统与 OSHA 可记录伤害发生率的降低有关。NM 报告系统可能是制造业中有价值的伤害干预措施。
