Abstract
[Background]Construction workers represent a high risk group for occupational injuries.Cur-rently,domestic and international studies examining the factors affecting occupational injuries among construction workers focus on demographic and behavioural characteristics.However,there is limited attention to psychosocial,use of digital technology,and health status of workers.
[Objective]To analyze the occurrence of occupational injuries among workers in the construction industry,explore impacts of psychosocial risk,use of digital technology,health status,and pre-ventive measures at the workplace on occupational injuries,and provide a basis for the develop-ment of preventive measures.
[Methods]Publicly available data from the European Union Occupational Safety and Health Ad-ministration were retrieved,comprising a sample of 2167 construction workers.The outcome indicator was the presence of occupational injuries among workers.A total of 25 variables in the dimensions of psychosocial risk,use of digital technology,health status,and preventive measures at the workplace were extracted after Chi-square test,and then a combination of Boruta's algo-rithm and logistic regression was applied to identify the key factors affecting occupational in-juries.
[Results]Among the 2167 construction workers surveyed,182(8.6%)reported experiencing occupational injuries.The Boruta algorithm identified eight characteristics which in descending order of importance were musculoskeletal disorders,job type,depression and anxi-ety,level of completed education,use of electronic smart products,timely solution of safety problems,overall fatigue,and age.The logistic regression results indicated that six variables had statistically significant effects on occupational injuries:age,job type,level of completed education,musculoskeletal disorders,overall fatigue,and timely solution of safety problems(P＜0.05).
[Conclusion]Occupational injuries in construction workers are influenced by a variety of factors,including age,job type,level of completed education,musculoskeletal disorders,overall fatigue,and timely solution of safety problems.Companies and workers should take targeted measures to reduce the incidence of occupational injuries.关键词
