Overall, 41% of all work-related accidents lead to a hand injury. In the younger generation, the incidence rate even rises to 50%. In Austria, these accidents result in approximately half a million sick leave days per annum, an average of 12.5 days per accident. In comparison, leisure-time hand injuries show a significantly higher accident rate: 60% of hand injuries occur during leisure time. Far fewer safety measures are taken and a lack of adequate training and a disregard for safety recommendations are observed.This large number of hand injuries led to the launch of a campaign in Austria in 2014-2015 called "Hände gut - Alles Gut", (Hands well - all's well). This campaign was aimed at reducing the costs, a sum of 309 million Euros, incurred solely from work-related hand accidents, by at least 5-10%.These exorbitantly high costs are not only due to severe hand trauma, most result from a multitude of slight and superficial wounds.
总体而言，所有与工作相关的事故中有41%会导致手部受伤。在年轻一代中，这一发生率甚至升至50%。在奥地利，这些事故每年导致约50万个病假天数，平均每次事故12.5天。相比之下，休闲时间的手部受伤事故率要高得多：60%的手部受伤发生在休闲时间。人们采取的安全措施要少得多，而且存在缺乏充分培训以及无视安全建议的情况。如此大量的手部受伤促使奥地利在2014年至2015年开展了一项名为“Hände gut - Alles Gut”（手部健康——一切都好）的活动。该活动旨在将仅因与工作相关的手部事故产生的3.09亿欧元成本至少降低5%至10%。这些极高的成本不仅是由于严重的手部创伤，大多数是由大量轻微和表浅的伤口造成的。
