The examined group consisted of 1850 workers who had been involved in one or more occupational accidents in the last ten-year period. The control group consisted of 1750 workers who had not been involved in occupational accidents during the same period. The number of workers younger than the age 30, number of overweight workers, workers with alcohol consumption and was statistically significantly more frequent in the examined than in the control group. Workers with the practice of sporting activities were statistically significantly more frequent in the control than in the examined group. The number of workers with work experience less than five years was statistically significantly greater in the examined than in the control group. Workers with hearing disorders, poorly corrected vision disorders, sleep disorders and arterial hypertension was statistically more presented in the examined than in the control group. Reaction time to acoustic and visual stimulation was statistically significantly longer in workers in the examined than in control group.The risk of occupational accidents depends on age, body mass index, hearing and visual disorders, sleep disorders, work experience, sporting activities, smoking and alcohol consumption habits. |
