Abstract

Introduction: OCCUPATIONAL ACCIDENTs are one of the most important causes of preventable disability and death in developing countries. Identifying the most probable risk factors in occupational injuries at a particular workplace can be considered as a basis for preventing or reducing the severity of these injuries. The aim of this study was to understand the factors that can affect occupational injuries in an industrial pipe factory.Materials and Methods: This case-control study was performed by completion of the forms (these forms were designed Based on the literature review) and information from the workers records, who had a work-related accident during the years 2007- 2013. Control group were those who worked during this period in the same factory with no history of OCCUPATIONAL ACCIDENT. We used frequency tables for describing the types of accidents and logistic regression to analyse the data.Results: Out of 525 workers, 204 had OCCUPATIONAL ACCIDENT and 321 were considered as control group. The mean ± SD age of the case group was 29.7±5.5 and that for the control group was 35±6 years-old. This study showed that one of the main factors with the highest correlation with the risk of injury was lacking the home ownership. Youthfulness, smoking, marital status, level of education and lack of technical license were among the other factors that significantly (p<.05) increased the OCCUPATIONAL ACCIDENTs in that factory.Conclusion: Improving the socio-economic situations such as home ownerships can be very helpful in preventing injuries. Also a proper relevancy between the professional trainings and types of task assigned to the workers would be other effective solution in preventing work place injuries.
