abstract

conclusions path analysis of occupational injuries based on the sem reveals that individual and organizational factors and their indicator variables are very influential on the severity of traumatic occupational injuries. so, these should be considered to reduce occupational accidents’ severity in large construction industries. materials and methods the present cross-sectional analytical study was implemented on traumatic occupational injuries within a ten-year timeframe in 13 large iranian construction industries. modeling and data analysis were done using the structural equation modeling (sem) approach and the ibm spss amos statistical software version 22.0, respectively. results the mean age and working experience of the injured workers were 28.03 ± 5.33 and 4.53 ± 3.82 years, respectively. the portions of construction and installation activities of traumatic occupational injuries were 64.4% and 18.1%, respectively. the sem findings showed that the individual, organizational and accident type factors significantly were considered as effective factors on occupational injuries’ severity (p < 0.05). background individual and organizational factors are the factors influencing traumatic occupational injuries. objectives the aim of the present study was the short path analysis of the severity of occupational injuries based on individual and organizational factors.
