Occupational injuries reported in a Canadian university setting: A five year retrospective study
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Research examining occupational injuries of university employees is limited, with previous work in the education sector focusing primarily on students and athletic teams. The current study examined occupational injuries over a five year period to determine the magnitude and nature of occupational injuries in a Canadian university with a view to developing prevention and intervention strategies. Findings suggested that women in full-time positions reported more injuries than men, and that as employees' level of experience increased the incidence of injury decreased. Analysis of injury characteristics revealed that the fingers, back and hand were the most frequently injured sites typically as a result of being struck or caught by an object, a slip/trip, or overexertion. These injuries resulted predominantly in an acute soft tissue injury requiring medical attention. Over the five year study period, food services, housekeeping and clerical staff filed the greatest number of accident/incident reports. Future investigations should employ a prospective approach which would allow researchers to determine variables of interest, ensure adequate data collection, and aim to improve the generalizability of research findings in this area.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
