Abstract:
ObjectiveTo understand the influencing factors of work-related injury medical expenses in Kunshan City. Methods The work-related injury data of Kunshan City from 2016 to 2021 were collected from the “Jiangsu Human Resources and Social Security Integration Handling Platform” of Kunshan Municipal Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, and the influencing factors of work-related injury medical expenses were analyzed using quantile regression. Results The median (interquartile range) of per capita work-related injury medical expenses in Kunshan City from 2016 to 2021 was 1 025.6(7 199.1) yuan. The result of 0.50 quantile regression analysis showed that the work-related injury medical expenses of male workers were higher than that of female workers (P<0.01), the work-related injury medical expenses of workers aged 46 and above were higher than those aged 16-<26 (P<0.01), the work-related injury medical expenses of veteran workers were lower than those of new workers (P<0.01), the work-related injury medical expenses of workers in the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth major risk industries were higher than that in the first major risk industry (all P<0.05), the work-related injury medical expenses on lower limb, head and neck, trunk, and multiple injured areas were lower than upper limb injuries (all P<0.01), the work-related injury medical expenses of workers with death, grades 5 to 6, grades 7 to 10, failure to reach grade, and ungraded injuries were lower than those of workers with grades 1 to 4 injuries (all P<0.01), the medical expenses for work-related injuries such as scalds, burns, and scorch were higher than cuts, abrasions, and stabs injuries (P<0.01). Conclusion The influencing factors of the workers' medical expenses for work-related injuries are age, gender, and injured body part. It is necessary to further strengthen the prevention of work-related injuries for males, new workers, workers in the third to sixth major risk industries, and those aged 46 and above. Meanwhile, it is needed to prevent workers from suffering scalds, burns, scorch injuries, upper limb injuries, and high disability grades injuries, to reduce the economic burden on workers and the society.
