| Popis: | There is at present a clear tendency to consider safety as a vital factor in the running of a country's fishing sector. However, the planning of the necessary resources and their adequate distribution according to the sector's needs is only possible if detailed information is available about the degree of concentration of the accidentality of that sector. In this context, the aim of this work is two-fold: firstly, to formalise a methodology for the fishing sector of a country which allows the inequality in the concentration of accidents to be analysed; and secondly, to apply this methodology to the Spanish fishing fleet for the period 1994-2002. Thus, indices are built by regions and by types of vessel for two variables: fishermen and vessels. Results are obtained both for the inequality in the concentration of accidents and their associated Lorenz curves and for the rates and elasticities of fishing sector accidents. |
