Abstract

Women are often victims of gender discrimination in various fields, including in the work environment. This research article aims to statistically evaluate the status of women’s employment and occupational accidents in some countries where regular data are available, and to provide predictions in the future. Using quantitative methods, data were analyzed with panel data analysis, bivariate correlation and two-step clustering methods. The findings of this study indicate that there is a positive and stronger correlation between work-injury for women than for men in all but a few developed social welfare countries. In some countries, while the correlation is negative for men, it is positive and strong for women. This study concludes that existing preventive regulations, including those in developed countries, are not sufficient to protect women. Women are more likely to work in non-traditional sectors where occupational health and safety (OHS) regulations are more flexible. Therefore, public authorities related to OHS should focus more on the conditions of this new industry in the future.
妇女就业中工伤事故的统计分析
在各个领域,包括在工作环境中,妇女往往是性别歧视的受害者。这篇研究文章旨在统计评估一些有定期数据的国家的妇女就业和职业事故状况,并为未来提供预测。采用面板数据分析、双变量相关分析和两步聚类方法对数据进行定量分析。这项研究的结果表明,除了少数几个发达的社会福利国家外,所有国家的女性工伤与男性工伤之间存在着积极和更强的相关性。在一些国家,虽然这种相关性对男性来说是负的,但对女性来说是正的,而且很强。这项研究的结论是,现有的预防性条例,包括发达国家的条例,不足以保护妇女。妇女更有可能在职业健康和安全条例较为灵活的非传统部门工作。因此,未来与职业健康安全相关的公共部门应该更多地关注这一新兴行业的状况。
