American Journal of Industrial Medicine, 07/29/09
Chen GX – From 1998 to 2002, the average annual rate of nonfatal work–related motor vehicle injuries was 7 injuries per 10,000 full–time equivalents. The rate was three times higher in men than in women. The rates were higher in workers 15–19 years of age and in workers 70 years or older. Justice, public order, and safety workers had the largest number of injuries, and taxicab service employees had the highest injury rate of all industries. Truck drivers had the largest number of injuries, and police and detectives, public service employees had the highest injury rate of all occupations. Future efforts need to develop and enhance the use of surveillance information at the federal and state level for work–related nonfatal motor vehicle injuries. Prevention efforts need to address occupational motor vehicle safety for both commercial truck/bus drivers and workers who are not commercial drivers but who drive light motor vehicles on the job.
