| Abstract |
This study analyses occupational accidents in the loading and unloading sector of the Port of the Bay of Cadiz between 1995 and 2002. It considers disability, absenteeism rates and the average duration of incapacitation, as well as factors such as occupational group, accident cause, diagnosis and injury severity. Results show a decreasing trend: the average duration of incapacitation declined from 11.32 to 3.74 days, incidence rates declined from 32.5% to 11.58% and the average duration of absenteeism per worker declined from 3.1 to 1.3 days. |
