摘要

海上职业包括航海、捕鱼、海洋水产养殖和海岸工作。这些非标准职业往往是危险的,伤害率很高。它们与不同程度的季节性、轮班工作、地域流动性和不同类型的薪酬有关,在从工伤和疾病中恢复时构成独特的挑战。这些部门对职业健康和安全的研究不足。此外,关于海事工人受伤后重返工作(RTW)的研究很少。本文介绍了一项混合方法研究计划的结果,该计划旨在深入了解加拿大不列颠哥伦比亚省(BC)海事工人的伤害、赔偿和RTW经验。研究方法包括对省级工人赔偿数据的分析,对受伤/生病的不列颠哥伦比亚省海事工人的匿名在线调查数据,以及对受伤工人和关键举报人的半结构化访谈数据。对工人赔偿数据的分析表明,严重伤害率高,残疾持续时间长,被认为是非法越境的比例高,特别是在捕鱼方面。调查结果显示,向WorkSafeBC索赔的工人比例相对较低。访谈数据强调了一些挑战,这些挑战可能解释了低报、较长的残疾持续时间和相对较差的RTW结果。提出了与政策相关的问题和未来研究领域,这些领域与理解和解决与这些部门相关的一些已确定的RTW挑战有关。

Injury and Return to Work Among Maritime Workers in British Columbia, Canada.

Maritime occupations encompass seafaring, fishing, marine aquaculture, and longshore work. These non-standard occupations tend to be hazardous with high injury rates. They are associated with varying levels of seasonality, shift work, geographic mobility, and different types of remuneration, posing unique challenges when recovering from work-related injury and illness. Occupational health and safety is under-researched in these sectors. Furthermore, little research exists on return to work (RTW) after injury among maritime workers. This paper presents findings from a mixed methods research program designed to provide insight into injury, compensation and RTW experiences among maritime workers in the Canadian province of British Columbia (BC). Research methods include the analysis of provincial workers' compensation data, data from an anonymous online survey of injured/ill BC maritime workers and from semi-structured interviews with injured workers and key informants. Analysis of workers' compensation data shows high rates of serious injuries, longer disability duration, and high rates of deemed RTW, particularly in fishing. Survey findings suggest a relatively low percentage of workers file claims for workers' compensation to WorkSafeBC. Interview data highlight some of the challenges that may explain under-reporting, longer disability duration, and relatively poor RTW outcomes. Policy relevant concerns and areas for future research relevant to understanding and addressing some of the identified RTW challenges associated with these sectors are presented.

期刊介绍: New Solutions delivers authoritative responses to perplexing problems, with a worker’s voice, an activist’s commitment, a scientist’s approach, and a policy-maker’s experience. New Solutions explores the growing, changing common ground at the intersection of health, work, and the environment. The Journal makes plain how the issues in each area are interrelated and sets forth progressive, thoughtfully crafted public policy choices. It seeks a conversation on the issues between the grassroots labor and environmental activists and the professionals and researchers involved in charting society’s way forward with the understanding that lack of scientific knowledge is no excuse for doing nothing and that inaction is itself a choice.
