Evaluation Safety Training Supervision Injury

项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A teenager is hurt on the job every 40 seconds and one dies every five days. According to the National Pediatric Trauma Registry and the National Center for Health Statistics, occupational injuries are the fourth leading cause of death among youth ages 10 to 19 years; led only by motor vehicle crashes, violence, and recreational injuries. Teenagers are about twice as likely as adults to suffer injuries resulting in workers' compensation claims and emergency room visits. Safety training and workplace supervision are important elements in preventing occupational injury in young workers. Limited information about the safety training experiences and workplace supervision exists for teen workers. Most of the data is limited to prevalence estimates captured by surveys of teens. The proposed pilot study, by a new investigator, will evaluate work-place safety training, workplace supervision, work habits, and occupational injury among a diverse group of working high school teenagers. Questionnaires will be administered to over 3,500 teens in three large, diverse public high schools in Jefferson Country, Kentucky. The questionnaires, which will be developed by the investigators using focus groups and cognitive interviews with working teens, will be administered two times during the grant period; once in May to capture teen's experiences during school-year employment and once in September to capture teen's experiences during the summer. The data from the questionnaires will be used to accomplish three specific aims: (1) delineate the nature and amount of safety training that the teenagers have received during their current employment and determine if differences exist between races, genders, ages, and occupations, (2) delineate the nature of workplace supervision and determine if differences exist between races, genders, ages and occupations, and (3) determine if teenagers with structured safety training and workplace supervision are less likely to report being injured at work. This project has several strengths including: (1) it is the first and only study to address safety training and workplace supervision among a large sample of teenagers, (2) it will be the first study to evaluate teen's understanding and experiences of safety training, (3) it will enroll a racially and ethnically diverse population of teens, so that the investigators will be able to compare experiences across race and ethnicity, as well as gender and age, (3) it will be the first to address the role of safety training and supervision in workplace injury. No studies to date have evaluated teenager's experiences with safety training and supervision, including what teens define as training. Safety training and supervision are important elements in preventing work-related injury. Information from this study can be used to begin developing an effective program based on teen's needs and experiences. Public Health Relevance: Injury among working youth is a major public health problem. The National Pediatric Trauma Registry and National Center for Health Statistics report that injuries due to occupation rank fourth in injuries among youth aged 10 to 19 years, led only by motor vehicle wrecks, violence, and recreational injuries. Safety training and workplace supervision are two methods useful in preventing occupational injury. Currently, there is limited information regarding safety training and supervision for teen workers. The information that does exist on safety training is limited to prevalence estimates and there is no information about workplace supervision. This study will be the first to conduct an in-depth assessment of safety training and supervision among teenage workers. In addition, it will be the first to evaluate the role safety training and supervision play in work-related injury.

描述（由申请人提供）：一个少年每40秒就会受伤，每五天死亡一次。根据国家儿科创伤注册中心和国家卫生统计中心的说法，职业伤害是10至19岁青年中的第四大死亡原因；仅由汽车撞车，暴力和休闲伤害带领。青少年的受伤可能是成年人的两倍，导致工人赔偿索赔和急诊室就诊。安全培训和工作场所的监督是预防年轻工人职业伤害的重要因素。对于青少年工人而言，存在有关安全培训经验和工作场所监督的有限信息。大多数数据仅限于青少年调查捕获的患病率估计。一名新研究人员提出的试点研究将评估工作场所的安全培训，工作场所监督，工作习惯和职业伤害，以及各种各样的高中青少年。问卷将在肯塔基州杰斐逊乡村的三所大型公立高中的3500多名青少年进行管理。调查员将使用焦点小组和对工作青少年进行认知访谈的调查表将在赠款期间进行两次管理； 5月，一次在学年就业期间捕捉青少年的经历，并在9月一次捕捉夏季的青少年经历。问卷中的数据将用于实现三个具体目标：（1）划定青少年在当前工作期间收到的安全培训的性质和数量，并确定种族，性别，年龄和职业之间是否存在差异，（2）划定工作场所监督的性质，并确定种族的差异以及培训的差异以及是否及时，培训范围，构成，型号和构造的行为，（3）是否有差异，（3）监督不太可能报告在工作中受伤。 This project has several strengths including: (1) it is the first and only study to address safety training and workplace supervision among a large sample of teenagers, (2) it will be the first study to evaluate teen's understanding and experiences of safety training, (3) it will enroll a racially and ethnically diverse population of teens, so that the investigators will be able to compare experiences across race and ethnicity, as well as gender and age, (3) it will be the first to address the安全培训和监督在工作场所伤害中的作用。迄今为止，还没有研究评估青少年在安全培训和监督方面的经历，包括青少年定义为培训的经历。安全培训和监督是预防与工作有关的伤害的重要因素。这项研究的信息可用于根据青少年的需求和经验开始制定有效的计划。公共卫生相关性：在职青年的伤害是一个主要的公共卫生问题。全国儿科创伤注册表和国家健康统计中心报告称，在10至19岁的年轻人中，由于占领而受伤造成的伤害排名第四，仅受汽车残骸，暴力和休闲伤害。安全培训和工作场所监督是防止职业伤害有用的两种方法。目前，有关青少年工人的安全培训和监督的信息有限。在安全培训中确实存在的信息仅限于患病率估计，并且没有有关工作场所监督的信息。这项研究将是第一个对青少年工人进行安全培训和监督的深入评估的研究。此外，这将是第一个评估与工作有关的伤害中安全培训和监督作用的角色。
