背景:已经建立了地方和国家监测系统来确定职业死亡。然而,由于某些限制,他们准确统计青少年工人死亡人数的能力有限。方法在这项以人群为基础的研究中,我们依赖于北卡罗莱纳州法医系统的主要数据来识别和描述1990年至2008年间北卡罗莱纳州18岁以下青少年中所有与工作相关的死亡。结果在11-17岁的青少年中,我们确定了31例与工作相关的死亡。其中大多数发生在1990年至1999年之间。大多数发生在建筑业和农业。车辆和枪支是造成大多数死亡的原因。结论:尽管在北卡罗来纳州,青少年与工作相关的死亡人数有所下降,但我们发现的31例死亡表明,防止年轻工人死亡的制度存在缺陷。在保护青少年工人的生命方面仍有更多工作要做。点。中华医学杂志,2011,34(4):536 - 542。©2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc。
BackgroundLocal and national surveillance systems are in place that identify occupational deaths. However, due to certain restrictions, they are limited in their ability to accurately count these deaths among adolescent workers.MethodsIn this population‐based study, we relied on primary data from the North Carolina medical examiner system to identify and describe all work‐related fatalities among North Carolina youth under age 18 between 1990 and 2008.ResultsWe identified 31 work‐related deaths among youth ages 11–17. The majority occurred between 1990 and 1999. Most occurred in construction and agriculture. Vehicles and guns were responsible for the majority of deaths.ConclusionsAlthough the prevalence of adolescent work‐related fatalities has seen a decline in North Carolina, the 31 deaths we detected signal a failure of the systems in place to prevent young worker fatalities. More remains to be done to protect the lives of adolescent workers. Am. J. Ind. Med. 54:136–142, 2011. © 2010 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
