To describe the epidemiological characteristics and trends of work-related eye injuries (WREIs) in Spain over a 10-year period by sex, age and occupational sector.
A descriptive, retrospective and longitudinal study based on data from workers insured by a labour insurance company in Spain from 2008 to 2018 was presented. The study considered the ratio of the number of WREI per 100 000 population and the relative risk of suffering an ocular injury. WREIs were characterised by sex, age and occupational sector of injured workers.
Ratio of the number of WREI.
In Spain, all workers are insured by a labour insurance company that provides cover in the event of work-related accidents. In this study, we have included all workers insured by one of these insurance companies, IBERMUTUA, with workers in all areas of Spain.
The study included 50 265 WREI in the company over the 10-year period. Most of the injuries occurred in males (44 445; 88.4%), in 35-44 age group (15 992; 31.8%) and in industry workers (18 899; 42.6%). The average incidence was 429.75 per 100 000 workers insured and 4273.36 per 100 000 IBERMUTUA accidents (related and not related to eyes). Males, 16-24 age group and industry occupational sector group, have the highest incidence for WREI. The incidence of WREI decrease over the study period in all variables. Males have 6.56 (95% CI 6.38 to 6.75) times more risk of suffering WREI than females. 16-24 age group have 1.77 (95% CI 1.71 to 1.83) times more risk than in the group of workers older than 55. Finally, industry workers have 7.73 (95% CI 7.55 to 7.92) times more risk than services workers.
The risks of suffering WREI is higher for males, younger and less experienced workers, and for those who works in a manual task.
按性别、年龄和职业部门描述西班牙10年间与工作相关的眼外伤(WREIs)的流行病学特征和趋势。
基于西班牙一家劳动保险公司2008年至2018年参保工人的数据进行描述性、回顾性和纵向研究。该研究考虑了每10万人口中WREI的数量比例以及遭受眼外伤的相对风险。WREIs按受伤工人的性别、年龄和职业部门进行特征描述。
WREI的数量比例。
在西班牙,所有工人都由一家劳动保险公司承保,该公司在发生与工作相关的事故时提供保险。在本研究中,我们纳入了其中一家保险公司IBERMUTUA承保的所有工人,这些工人分布在西班牙的各个地区。
该研究在10年期间纳入了该公司50265例WREIs。大多数损伤发生在男性(44445例;88.4%)、35 - 44岁年龄组(15992例;31.8%)和工业工人(18899例;42.6%)中。平均发病率为每10万参保工人429.75例,每10万IBERMUTUA事故(与眼睛相关和不相关)4273.36例。男性、16 - 24岁年龄组和工业职业部门组的WREI发病率最高。在研究期间,所有变量中WREI的发病率均下降。男性遭受WREI的风险是女性的6.56倍(95%置信区间6.38至6.75)。16 - 24岁年龄组的风险比55岁以上工人组高1.77倍(95%置信区间1.71至l.83)。最后,工业工人遭受WREI的风险比服务业工人高7.73倍(95%置信区间7.55至7.92)。
男性、年轻且经验不足的工人以及从事体力劳动的工人遭受WREI的风险更高。
