Abstract. The aim of this study is to examine the factors that contribute
to occupational injuries in metallic ore mining. The number of injuries
was highest on Monday, in January, between 8 a.m. and 10 am and between
4 pm and 6pm. Most of the injuries occurred in first and second shifts.
Most of the injuries involved employees with less than one year of experience
in their job. The number of occupational injuries is inversely related
to age and worker education levels. The leading causes of injuries were
being struck by objects or being pressed. Upper and lower extremities were
the body parts most often affected. Contusions, lacerations and closed
fractures were the most frequent injury types. These results are important
for the control and prevention of occupational injuries.
Key Words: Occupational injury, miners, metallic ore mining
POVREDE NA RADU U RUDNICIMA RUDE METALA
Cilj rada je istraživanje faktora koji mogu doprineti pojavi povreda na
radu u rudnicima rude metala. Najveći broj povreda se događa Ponedeljkom,
između 8 i 10 sati i između 16 i 18 sati, tokom meseca Januara i u vreme
prve i druge radne smene. Najčešće se povređuju radnici sa radnim iskustvom
manjim od godinu dana. Broj povreda na radu je obrnuto proporcionalan starosti
i školskoj spremi radnika. Najčešći uzroci povreda su udari ili nagnječenja
predmetima. Povredama su najčešće zahvaćeni gornji i donji ekstremiteti.
Nagnječenja, razderne rane i zatvorene frakture su najčešće vrste povreda.
Ovi rezultati mogu naći svoju primenu u procesu kontrole i prevencije povreda
na radu.
Ključne reči: Povrede na radu, rudari, rudnici rude metala.
