Work accidents affect more than 700,000 workers in Brazil each year. Among the three economic sectors, industry is the one that contributes with most work accidents in the country. Metallurgical and metal-mechanic companies stand out within this sector as a function of the frequency of leaves resulting from work-related accidents and illnesses.
To analyze the occupational profile and hazards associated with work accidents at a metal-mechanic company for the period from 2007 to 2015.
Cross-sectional study that analyzed data available in work accident report forms issued by the employer.
Thesociodemographic and occupational profile predominantly associated with work accidents at the investigated company included: male gender, age 18 to 29 years old, white people, married or in stable union, with incomplete higher education, welders/assemblers and less than 5years of work at the company. The most frequent types of injuries caused by accidents were fractures, dislocations, strains, contusions, excoriations, cuts and amputations. The most common causative agents were metal parts. The highest accident rates corresponded to 2008 and 2012, in which years economic recession hit the metal-mechanic segment.
In addition to pointing to an economic sector with a high-risk work accident profile, the analyzed work accidents - the predominant consequence of which was leave for more than 15 days - might express a selective strategy from the company, which chose not to record less serious accidents.
在巴西，每年有超过70万名工人遭遇工伤事故。在三个经济部门中，工业是该国工伤事故发生率最高的部门。冶金和金属机械公司在该部门中尤为突出，因其工伤事故和疾病导致的缺勤频率较高。
分析一家金属机械公司在2007年至2015年期间与工伤事故相关的职业概况和危害。
采用横断面研究，分析雇主出具的工伤事故报告表中的可用数据。
与被调查公司工伤事故主要相关的社会人口统计学和职业概况包括：男性、年龄在18至29岁之间、白人、已婚或处于稳定关系、高等教育未完成、焊工/装配工以及在公司工作少于5年。事故造成的最常见伤害类型为骨折、脱位、拉伤、挫伤、擦伤、割伤和截肢。最常见的致病因素是金属部件。事故发生率最高的年份为2008年和2012年，这两年金属机械行业受到经济衰退的冲击。
除了指出一个工伤事故风险较高的经济部门外，所分析的工伤事故（其主要后果是缺勤超过15天）可能反映了公司的一种选择性策略，即选择不记录不太严重的事故。
