Economic burden of work injuries and diseases
Our framework serves as a template for estimating the economic burden of work injuries and diseases across countries in the European Union and elsewhere. Results can assist policymakers with identifying health and safety priority areas based on the magnitude of components, particularly when stratified by key characteristics such as industry, injury/disease, age and sex. Case costing can serve as an input into the economic evaluation of prevention…
A probabilistic approach for economic evaluation of occupational health and safety interventions
Background Construction workers are at a high risk of exposure to various types of hazardous substances such as crystalline silica.

Long-term mortality risk in individuals with permanent work-related impairment
Association Between the Decline in Workers’ Compensation Claims and Workforce Composition and Job Characteristics in Ontario, Canada

Gender, age, occupation, and job tenure were predictors for claim rates in 12 industrial sectors. The decline in claims was significantly associated with a decline in the proportion of employment in occupations with high physical demands. These f…
