Abstract

In recent years, the way of handling and carrying fish within fishing ports has improved from a sanitary perspective. With a view of improving safety of workers, there has not been examined in any detail. This study reveals characteristics of accidents during handling and carrying fish. Upon hundreds of work accident data gathered by JF Zengyoren(A nationwide federation of fisheries cooperatives in Japan), accident types with high frequency or high fatality rate are extracted. Furthermore, using Fisher's exact test, factors influencing the occurrence of accidents are extracted.
