  1. Nordic Collaboration on Fishing Safety Workshop in Copenhagen 20-21 Feb 2014Valid and harmonisedinjurynumbersand fishermen´s population time - comparable and reliable incidence rates – to learn safety from each other Olaf Jensen, Centre for Maritime Health & Society, Esbjerg, Denmark

  2. Contents • Background – why do weneedbetter data • Methods – epidemiological measures • ILO proposals • Harmonised ”nominator data…” • Harmonised ”denominator • Proposals Olaf Jensen ocj@sdu.dk

  3. BACKGROUND 1 A review based on peer-reviewed scientific publications and some reports from the maritime authorities gave the following information: Studies from Poland, UK, Norway, Iceland, USA inclusive Alaska,Canada and Denmark show more or less similar results (Canada with the lowest risk of all) There has been about 50 % reduction of the fatal injury rates in fishing since the 1970’ies. Olaf Jensen ocj@sdu.dk

  4. BACKGROUND 2 The relative risk for fatal injuries in fishing compared with other industries varied from about 25 to 50. There is consistent evidence that around half of the fatal injuries are related to vessel disasters - and that fatigue and lack of good safety culture are main risk factors for the vessel disasters. Olaf Jensen ocj@sdu.dk

  5. BACKGROUND 3 National rates cannot be directly compared Trends are valid documentation of the effects of national interventions We need better and harmonisedreports of injuries better and harmonised information of the fishermen´s populations at risk to calculate the Incidence rates per 1000 fishermen per year Olaf Jensen ocj@sdu.dk
