Features of Occupational Traumatism among Women from members of Vessel`s Crew of transport fleet of the Northern Water`s Basin
Journal Title: Annals of Marine Science - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 1
Abstract
The use of women’s labor in water transport is limited due to the specifics of production processes on vessels, the duration of flights, isolation from shore bases and families. Among the total contingent of members of vessel`s crew, women make up 10.7% - on transport marine up to 34.4% - on river transport vessels. The analysis of traumatism affecting women was based on 134 cases, which happened on board of vessels resulting in a temporary loss of ability to work. The control group consisted of 2,082 injuries, received under the same conditions by men. In contrast to men in women with occupational injuries on vessels, bone fractures of different localization are much less common in comparison with, bruises and wounds. However, due to the specifics of the work performed, women receive, in comparison with men, more severe burn injuries with an area of damage of 5.0-20.0%, mainly the shin, face, chest, forearm.
