Evaluation of the Workplace Accident Severity in an Underground Coal Mine By Logistic Regression Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Accidents in underground coal mining can cause deaths, serious injuries, and material losses.

Methods

This study examined 10,334 work accidents that occurred between 2011 and 2021, resulting in injuries, and evaluated the causes, severity, and types of injuries. The accidents were investigated under the following subheadings: location of accidents, causes of accidents, work shifts when the accidents occurred, accident time, accident days, distribution of accidents by months and years, age of workers, occupational groups, educational status of workers, working day losses, and body parts that were injured. The severity of accidents was categorized into three levels: mild, moderate, and severe, based on the workday losses incurred by the workers after the accident. T
