凶杀是工作场所伤害死亡的第三大原因。基于死亡证明的国家创伤性职业死亡监测系统和年度就业估计用于计算1980年至1989年全国详细行业和职业的与工作有关的杀人平均年率。出租车行业的工人与工作有关的杀人率最高(每10万名工人中有26.9人)。提供公共和私人安全以及一些零售贸易和服务行业的工人的税率也很高。在许多高风险行业,只有男性工人才会面临过高的风险。在不同的行业和职业中,黑人和非黑人工人的税率差异也不尽相同。需要立即努力保护工人,并长期努力彻底描述和研究与工作有关的杀人行为,并评估干预措施。
Homicide is the third leading cause of injury death in the workplace. The death certificate-based National Traumatic Occupational Fatalities surveillance system and estimates of annual employment were used to calculate average annual rates of work-related homicide for detailed industries and occupations for the nation for 1980 to 1989. Workers in the taxicab industry had the highest rate of work-related homicide (26.9 per 100,000 workers). High rates were also identified for workers providing public and private security, and in a number of retail trade and service industries. For many high-risk industries, the risk was excessive for male workers only. Differences between rates for black and nonblack workers varied across industries and occupations. Immediate efforts to protect workers, and long-term efforts to describe and study work-related homicide thoroughly and to evaluate interventions are needed.
