abstract="OBJECTIVE: To estimate the prevalence of occupational injury disability (OID) and to examine the socioeconomic status of OID in China. <br><br>METHODS: The data derived from the China National Sample Survey on Disability in 2006 involving people aged 16-59 years old. Descriptive statistics are used to measure OID's prevalence, and a binary logistic regression is used to identify the risk factors. <br><br>RESULTS: The population-weighted prevalence of OID is 1.81 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.67-1.94). Socioeconomic risk factors include male sex, older age, living in urban areas, junior high school education, income below the poverty line, a lack of occupational injury insurance, living in the western region and working in high-risk occupations. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: OID is common among Chinese people aged 16-59 years old. Being male or older and having a lower income are risk factors for OID, similar to the results of previous research, but education is different. More training and education needs to be implemented to prevent OID.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
