Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the incidence of road traffic injuries among online deliverymen and its influencing factors, so as to provide insights into prevention of road traffic injuries.
Methods:Online deliverymen who were registered on a takeaway platform and delivered within Baotou City, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region were recruited using a convenience sampling method, and demographic information, delivery work conditions and road traffic injury data were collected through questionnaire surveys from June to September, 2023. Factors affecting the incidence of road traffic injuries were identified by a multivariable logistic regression model.
Results:A total of 603 questionnaires were allocated, and 584 were valid, with an effective rate of 96.85%. There were 467 men (79.97%) and 117 women (20.03%), 200 participants at ages of 31-40 years (34.25%), 215 crowdsourcing deliverymen (36.82%) and 510 full-time (87.33%). The incidence of road traffic injuries in the past one year was 14.90%, and 59 injuries were mild (67.82%). The parts of injuries were mainly upper limbs (31.03%) and lower limbs (45.98%). Multivariable logistic regression analysis showed that online deliverymen who did not wear a helmet at work (OR=2.591, 95%CI: 1.354-4.958) and worked as a crowdsourcing deliverymen (OR=2.232, 95%CI: 1.041-4.786) had higher risks of road traffic injuries, while online deliverymen who worked part-time (OR=0.154, 95%CI: 0.034-0.706) had lower risks of road traffic injuries.
Conclusions:The incidence of road traffic injuries among online deliverymen is associated with post, type of work and wearing helmets or not. The traffic safety education and management should be strengthened among online deliverymen.
