TY - JOUR PY - 1981// TI - Dynamics and severity of occupational injuries at the A. Warski Shipyard in Szczecin during the years 1967-1977 JO - Medycyna pracy A1 - Schweiger, I. A1 - Szulc, H. SP - 135 EP - 143 VL - 32 IS - 2 N2 - In the period concerned, the number of accidents was increased by 91.7%, and the number of work disablement days -- by 65.1%, as compared to 1967. The accident severity rate was reduced in 1977 by 15.7%, as compared to 1967. Two periods could be clearly singled out: a) 1967--1970 described by low number of accidents (311.5 +/- 38.7) and work disablement days (7436 +/- 394) and high severity rate (24.05 +/- 1.95), and b) 1971--1977 described by a great number of accidents (636 +/- 55.9) and work disablement days (12325 +/- 547) and lowered severity rate (19.50 +/- 2.29). The decrease in the severity index, especially since 1972, resulted surely from an extension of the range of activities of the Surgical Dispensary, initiation of the Medical Rehabilitation Dispensary, and appropriate organization of occupational rehabilitation.
