Abstract

As an integral part of the economy of Saudi Arabia the industrial sector has rapidly developed in the last decade and is still open for more growth. Thus, there is likely to be an increase in industrial accidents, often with added consequences for the medical services. Because of this, cumulative information on industrial accidents is needed. This paper reports on industrial accidents in order to alert medical researchers to the need for specific studies of different industrial occupations in Saudi Arabia so that adequate administrative and medical services may be available should an industrial accident occur.
