Abstract:
This research aims to study 1. level of industrial workers occupational injuries and 2. factors affecting levels of industrial workers occupational injuries. Data collection was carried out from a sampling of 212 workers suffering from occupational injuries under responsibilities of the Industrial Rehabilitation Center Region 2, Social Security Office. The major tool for data collection includes an evaluation form on individual injuries of industrial workers, and data analysis highlights descriptive statistics, namely frequency, percentage, arithmetic mean, standard deviation and inference statistics, particularly Order logistic regression. The results indicated that, in terms of workers suffering from industrial injuries, most of them 85.4% -- suffered from severe injuries. The number was followed by minor, moderate and fatal injuries respectively. After taking factors affecting levels of occupational injuries among the workers, gender, occupational position, salary paid during accident, working with broken machines, selection of some types of safety equipment, not observing safety regulations and fatigue caused by lack of sleep resulted in occupational injuries at the level of statistical significance of 0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.01, 0.05, 0.01 and 0.01 respectively. Nonetheless, age, professional experiences or working years, working hours, inspection of working machines, not using safety equipment, using unsafe working equipment, stress at work and experiences from training/working on occupational safety did not affect levels of industrial workers occupational injuries at all.
