Abstract

Repetitive strain injuries (RSIs) in Ontario were examined with respect to gender for the period 1986 to 1991, using data from Ontario Workers' Compensation Board systems. Technical issues surrounding analysis of workplace injuries and theoretical suggestions raised by the data are discussed. Analyses revealed that the risk of RSIs for women is greater than that for men. Furthermore, women receive compensation benefits because of RSIs for a longer period than do their male counterparts, which may indicate a longer-term effect of RSIs on women.

摘要

利用安大略省工人赔偿委员会系统的数据，对1986年至1991年期间安大略省的重复性劳损伤害（RSIs）按性别进行了调查。讨论了围绕工伤分析的技术问题以及数据提出的理论建议。分析表明，女性患重复性劳损伤害的风险高于男性。此外，女性因重复性劳损伤害获得赔偿福利的时间比男性长，这可能表明重复性劳损伤害对女性有更长期的影响。
