We sought to share our experiences with occupational health efforts at a manufacturing site after a large earthquake event, and to evaluate the effectiveness of our "List of Occupational Health Needs Following Disasters" (Needs List).
We implemented occupational health efforts following the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes in Japan, with reference to the Needs List and a related manual, and analyzed the needs that arose.
The instruments used enabled occupational health personnel to predict what needs would arise and facilitate their countermeasures. Among such needs that arose, 87.7% were in the Needs List, but seven undocumented needs were also observed.
We confirmed that the Needs List could predict as many occupational health needs as we had expected at the disaster, though it is necessary to improve them by reflecting on our experiences.
我们旨在分享在一次大型地震事件后,某制造场所开展职业健康工作的经验,并评估我们的“灾难后职业健康需求清单”(需求清单)的有效性。
我们参考需求清单和相关手册,在日本 2016 年熊本地震后开展了职业健康工作,并对出现的需求进行了分析。
使用的工具使职业健康人员能够预测会出现哪些需求,并为应对这些需求提供便利。在所出现的这些需求中,87.7%在需求清单中,但也观察到了 7 项未记录的需求。
我们确认需求清单能够预测到灾难中预期的那么多职业健康需求,但有必要通过反思我们的经验来改进这些清单。
