To evaluate the occupational safety and health management of COVID-19 at a company in the Peruvian fishing sector Methods: The independent variable was occupational safety and health management, defined as the implementation of preventive and control measures in response to COVID-19. The dependent variable was defined as the number of detected COVID-19 cases and test positivity rate. We used a pre- (implementation phase) and post-test (following the implementation phase) study design. We performed a non-parametric inferential analysis to identify any significant pre- and post-test differences and any associations between the variables.
The company initiated a strategy to detect positive cases through the use of serological tests. During the first stage, 2329 tests were conducted, yielding a positivity rate of 71%. Once prevention and control actions were implemented, the positivity rate in August 2020 had decreased to 15.65%,, a statistically significant decrease (p<0.05), as well as its relationship to the measures implemented.
This occupational safety and health intervention significantly reduced the number of COVID-19 cases and positivity rate in this group of workers in the Peruvian fishing sector.
评估秘鲁渔业部门一家公司针对新冠病毒病的职业安全与健康管理情况。方法:自变量为职业安全与健康管理,定义为针对新冠病毒病实施的预防和控制措施。因变量定义为新冠病毒病检测病例数和检测阳性率。我们采用了前测(实施阶段)和后测(实施阶段之后)研究设计。我们进行了非参数推断分析,以确定前测和后测之间的任何显著差异以及变量之间的任何关联。
该公司启动了一项通过使用血清学检测来检测阳性病例的策略。在第一阶段,进行了2329次检测,阳性率为71%。一旦实施了预防和控制措施,2020年8月的阳性率降至15.65%,这是一个具有统计学意义的下降(p<0.05),以及其与所实施措施的关系。
这项职业安全与健康干预措施显著降低了秘鲁渔业部门这群工人中的新冠病毒病病例数和阳性率。
