本研究的目的是确定目前的方法，培训入门级工人对科罗拉多奶牛场，以衡量培训方法的关系，对这些操作的工伤发生率，并描述的性质和原因，受伤的参与工人报告。来自韦尔德、摩根、拉里默和尤马县的15家奶牛场的72名工人自愿以他们选择的语言接受私下采访。按照内容（任务培训与安全培训）、交付方法（在职口头指导、在职演示、在职监督、课堂和/或阅读材料）和讲师（主管和/或同事）对培训方法进行分类。大多数受访工人（84.7%）是墨西哥出生的讲西班牙语的男性。大多数工人报告说，培训是口头指导、示范和监督的结合。72人中有29人（40.3%）在访谈前12个月内至少遭受过一次工伤。入门级的安全培训没有保护作用（P = 0.463），在过去一年的伤害发生率在乳品工人。然而，接受任务相关培训的工人遭受工伤的可能性降低了四倍（P = 0.008）。由同事进行的培训也有显着的保护作用，对工伤（P = 0.028）。奶制品工人认为与牲畜或机械直接接触是工伤的主要原因，大多数伤害发生在给病牛用药和挤奶时。
The goals of this study were to define the current methods for training entry-level workers on Colorado dairies, to measure the relationship of training methods to the incidence of work-related injuries on those operations, and to characterize the nature and cause of injuries reported by participating workers. Seventy-two workers from 15 dairies from Weld, Morgan, Larimer and Yuma counties volunteered to be interviewed privately in the language of their choice. Training methods were classified by content (task training versus safety training), method of delivery (on-the-job verbal instruction, on-the-job demonstration, on-the-job supervision, classroom- based, and / or reading materials); and instructor (supervisor and/or co-worker). The majority (84.7%) of interviewed workers were Mexican-born, Spanish-speaking males. Most workers reported the training to be a combination of verbal instruction, demonstration and supervision. Twenty-nine of 72 (40.3%) of all participants suffered at least one work-related injury in the 12 months prior to the interview. Entry-level safety training had no protective effect (P = 0.463) on the reported incidence of injury in dairy workers in the previous year. However, workers that received task-related training were four times less likely to suffer a work-related injury (P = 0.008). Training conducted by a co-worker also had a significant protective effect against work-related injuries (P = 0.028). Dairy workers identified direct contact with livestock or machinery as the main cause for work-related injuries, and most injuries occurred while medicating sick cows and milking.
