title: Occupational accidents in a selected chemical enterprise in Poland and an attempt to evaluate their economic effects.
abstract: An analysis was made of occupational accidents leading to temporary absence from work occurring in a selected chemical plant in the years 1988-1989. The authors also studied the possibilities of evaluating costs and financial losses for the enterprise due to occupational accidents. However, the results of the evaluation, in the Polish situation and based on records existing in the enterprise, were not very useful.
