title: The analysis of work-related injuries in a tractor factory.
abstract: An analysis of work-related injuries and absenteeism was carried out in a steel production and tractor manufacturing factory from 1982 to 1986. During that period there were 1152 injuries and 16,798 working days lost. Foundry workers were the most frequently injured; fists and fingers were the most frequently affected parts of the body. The number of injuries at work as well as the number of lost working days were highly influenced by the low socio-economic position of workers and by a general recession.
