Abstract

HIGHLIGHTS We identified 48 fatal and 187 non-fatal agricultural injuries in Florida from 2015-2019. Vehicles and environmental sources were the two leading injury sources. Using multiple data sources helped us understand the at-risk populations. ABSTRACT. The purpose of this study was to examine and describe fatal and non-fatal agricultural injuries documented in Florida. We used Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) data and AgInjuryNews.org (AIN) data from 2015 through 2019 to identify 48 fatal and 187 non-fatal injuries during the five-year study period, with 86% (40 fatal, 175 non-fatal) of these injuries being occupational. A total of 101 (43%) people were injured as a result of transportation incidents. Major injury sources were vehicles (46%) and environmental sources (heat, lightning, etc.) (14%). Using AIN data, we identified risks for youth under the age of 18 and for individuals age 65 and older. This study suggests the need for additional injury surveillance efforts to gather demographic information to identify at-risk populations.

2015-2019年，我们在佛罗里达州确定了48起致命和187起非致命农业伤害。车辆和环境是两个主要的伤害源。使用多种数据来源帮助我们了解高危人群。摘要本研究的目的是检查和描述致命和非致命的农业伤害记录在佛罗里达州。我们使用职业安全与健康管理局(OSHA)的数据和农业伤害新闻网站(AIN) 2015年至2019年的数据，在五年的研究期间确定了48起致命伤害和187起非致命伤害，其中86%(40起致命伤害，175起非致命伤害)是职业伤害。因交通事故受伤的人数为101人(43%)。主要伤害源为车辆(46%)和环境源(热、闪电等)(14%)。使用AIN数据，我们确定了18岁以下青少年和65岁及以上个人的风险。这项研究表明，需要额外的伤害监测工作，以收集人口统计信息，以确定高危人群。
