[Epidemiologic analysis of occupational accidents using data of the Swiss National Accident Insurance].

The present study is aimed to relate occupational accidents, as recorded by SAIF for 1974, to several risk factors among which the size of industrial enterprises. The results seem to demonstrate that very small enterprises (of less than ten employees) produce the highest rate of occupational accidents and accumulate risk factors. Nevertheless, before going very much further in the comment of results, the authors emphasize the limitations of the available statistical material. Further limitation in planning an ergonomical prevention programme on the basis of those records is to be related to the parameters chosen to explain the genesis of occupational accidents.

[Is Swiss national accident data useful for epidemiological studies if the latter is intended for validating preventive measures?].

In the general frame of an inquiry concerning the development of occupational health in Switzerland and its forthcoming place inside the Swiss health system, data on accidents were communicated to us by the Swiss National Accident Insurance Fund. In this paper, the question is raised whether those data may be effectively submitted to the epidemiological analysis in order to quantify the accident risk and to validate preventive measures. Results will be presented in a subsequent article.
