Abstract

INTRODUCTION

Adolescents engaging in school-sponsored work experiences may be at risk of injury due to factors such as inexperience. This article examines trends in 20 years of reported injuries among New Jersey (NJ) adolescents engaging in school-sponsored work experiences, and compares a transition from paper to online reporting format.

METHODS

New Jersey requires reporting of injuries occurring during school-sponsored work experiences to the NJ Department of Education. Injuries reported by NJ schools from 1999 to 2018 (n = 2,119) were examined; incidence rates for 2008 to 2018 (n = 743) were calculated using publicly available NJ Department of Education enrollment data for the denominator, including for specific groups of students: career and technical education; special healthcare needs.

RESULTS

A downward trend in reported injuries in NJ schools was observed. However, the year online reporting became required by code (2013), an increase of nearly 50% was seen from 2012 (59-89), followed by a decline in reported incidents 2014 to 2018 (mean = 65, range 76 down to 47). Injury rate trends over time paralleled those of reported incidents.

CONCLUSIONS

This study suggested worker safety and public health benefits of improvements from State of NJ code required training programs and online injury surveillance report form. Practical Applications: One potential method to address the safety and health of adolescents engaging in work experiences is the use of online reporting forms, to aid in surveillance efforts, coupled with occupational safety and health training specifically geared toward teachers and administrators who both supervise young, relatively inexperienced and vulnerable workers and who make relatively frequent worksite visits. Incorporation of specific details of the instructions on the use of a reporting form into required trainings, in addition to providing a clear, accessible guidance manual online, could further help improve youth worker safety surveillance efforts.

摘要

引言

参与学校赞助工作经验的青少年可能因经验不足等因素而面临受伤的风险。本文研究了 20 年来新泽西州（NJ）参与学校赞助工作经验的青少年报告的伤害趋势，并比较了从纸质报告到在线报告格式的转变。

方法

新泽西州要求向 NJ 教育部报告在学校赞助的工作经验中发生的伤害事件。对 1999 年至 2018 年（n=2119）期间 NJ 学校报告的伤害事件进行了研究；使用可公开获得的 NJ 教育部入学数据计算了 2008 年至 2018 年（n=743）的发病率，包括特定学生群体的入学数据：职业和技术教育；特殊医疗保健需求。

结果

观察到 NJ 学校报告的伤害事件呈下降趋势。然而，在线报告在代码中成为强制性要求的那一年（2013 年），从 2012 年（59-89）开始，报告的事件数量增加了近 50%，随后在 2014 年至 2018 年期间报告的事件数量有所下降（平均值=65，范围从 76 下降到 47）。随着时间的推移，伤害率趋势与报告事件的趋势相吻合。

结论

本研究表明，新泽西州法规要求的培训计划和在线伤害监测报告表的改进带来了工人安全和公共卫生方面的好处。实际应用：解决参与工作经验的青少年的安全和健康问题的一种潜在方法是使用在线报告表，以协助监测工作，同时针对监督年轻、经验相对不足和脆弱工人以及经常进行工作场所访问的教师和管理人员进行职业安全和健康培训。在强制性培训中纳入使用报告表的说明的具体细节，以及在网上提供清晰、易于访问的指导手册，可以进一步帮助改善青年工人安全监测工作。
