OBJECTIVES
To assess the prevalence and determinants of work-related injuries among small and medium scale industrial workers in Bahir Dar town, northwest Ethiopia.
METHOD
Cross sectional comparative study design was used. Purposive sampling method was used to choose the specific Kebele 14 of the study area, for its relatively high number of industries. The study units were stratified into small and medium scale industries. All workers who were available at the time of interview were included in the study. A pre-tested questionnaire was used to collect data. Data was analyzed using SPSS for windows 16.0.
RESULT
A total of 328 and 655 workers from small and medium-scale industries respectively participated in the study. Seven hundred sixty nine (78.2%) were males. Three hundred thirty six workers (34.2%) reported that they had experienced work-related injuries. Sex, monthly salary, age, work experience and use of personal protective equipment were found to be different in the small and medium industries (P < 0.05).
CONCLUSION
There was a high prevalence of work related injuries. Sociodemographic, socioeconomic, personal work behavior and the working environment have contributed for the injuries. Work-related injuries are assumed to be preventable with the provision of occupational health programs in workplaces. Thus it is recommended that the owners of industries need to focus on training and installing safer work environment and Further studies with large-scale coverage and prospective study designs are warranted.
目的
评估埃塞俄比亚西北部巴赫达尔镇中小型产业工人中与工作相关的损伤的患病率及其决定因素。
方法
采用横断面比较研究设计。采用立意抽样法选择研究区域内产业数量相对较多的特定的第14区。研究单位分为小型和中型产业。所有在访谈时可获得的工人均纳入研究。使用预先测试的问卷收集数据。使用SPSS for windows 16.0进行数据分析。
结果
分别有328名和655名来自小型和中型产业的工人参与了研究。769名（78.2%）为男性。336名工人（34.2%）报告称他们曾经历过与工作相关的损伤。小型和中型产业在性别、月工资、年龄、工作经验和个人防护设备的使用方面存在差异（P < 0.05）。
结论
与工作相关的损伤患病率较高。社会人口统计学、社会经济、个人工作行为和工作环境都对这些损伤有影响。通过在工作场所提供职业健康计划，与工作相关的损伤被认为是可以预防的。因此，建议产业所有者关注培训并营造更安全的工作环境，并且有必要进行大规模覆盖的进一步研究和前瞻性研究设计。
