Resumen A total of 6,223 occupational accidents were investigated for possible meteorological influences; they were divided into accidents in closed rooms and accidents in the open air. The number of occupational accidents in the open air rises considerably in winter when temperatures are low, particularly on frosty days, and in summer when temperatures are high (over 20°C). In winter the number of accidents in closed rooms shows a clear increase when temperatures exceed the standard temperature. This may be caused by overheating on such warm days. Occupational accidents occurring in closed rooms and in the open air follow a cycle with two components.
