Abstract:
Many factors of organizational, technical, social and human are involved in determining occupational injury. The purpose of this study was to evaluate how the characteristics of the human factor can influence the accident phenomenon. From records of the construction firms involved in the project "Protection of health on construction sites" promoted by CPT Bergamo and Occupational Medicine of Bergamo Hospital were extracted data on lifestyle of workers involved in occupational injuries in the period 2007-2011. The indicators of lifestyles used were the smoking status, alcohol consumption and drugs, body mass index (BMI), physical activity.
