Abstract

|
This study develops an industrial accident vulnerability index that determines how much and how often workers are exposed to the regional risk of industrial accident by analyzing industrial insurance data. To this end, we offer a methodology for developing an industrial accident vulnerability index consisting of six steps: Establishing the purpose of index use, analyzing the characteristics of candidate indicators, selecting the indicators, calculating the index, conducting a simulation, and applying and deriving industrial improvements by applying previous methodologies for developing the index. We developed this industrial accident vulnerability index using that proposed methodology. The study thus quantifies a vulnerability index by combining different industrial accident information including regional disease types and regional exposure levels for different industrial accidents. The results help compare types of occupational diseases caused by regional industrial accidents and help determine of the risk of regional industrial accidents to prevent future industrial accidents.
