abstract="The trend in the work accident rate during 1969-1979 was characterized by a decrease in the accident frequency, in spite of this, however, the economic losses due to accidents have been increasing every year since 1975. The existing statistics system in Czechoslovakia, which is based on the &quot;source-cause&quot; principle, does not provide enough information needed for effective accident prevention control. Analyses were therefore carried out in order to investigate the hazardous acts typical of the activities of different professional groups, the most relevant causes of accidents in connection with concrete activities, the relationships between activity and accident, etc. The results of analyses which eliminated the considerable anomaly in the existing accident rate structure were used in 1979 to establish a work accident databank.<p />",
