  3. Article ; Online: Evaluation of the characteristics of injured workers and employer compliance with OSHA's reporting requirement for work-related amputations.

    Abstract Introduction: In 2014, the Federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) enacted a standard requiring employers to report work-related amputations to OSHA within 24 hours. We studied the characteristics of the injured workers and employer compliance with the regulation in Michigan.
    Methods: Two independent data sets were used to compare work-related amputations from 2016 to 2018: employer reports to OSHA and the Michigan Multi-Source Injury and Illness Surveillance System (MMSIISS). We deterministically linked employer reports to OSHA with the MMSIISS by employee name, employer name, date, and type of amputation.
    Results: We identified 1366 work-related amputations from 2016 to 2018; 575 were reported by employers to OSHA and 1153 were reported by hospitals to the MMSIISS. An overlap of 362 workers were reported in both systems, while 213 workers were only reported by employers to OSHA and 791 workers were only reported by hospitals. Employer compliance with the regulation was 42.1%. Employer compliance with reporting was significantly less in: agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting (14.6%); construction (27.4%); retail trade (20.7%); arts, entertainment, and recreation (7.7%); accommodation and food services (13.0%); and other services (27.0%). Large employers and unionized employers were significantly more likely (67.9% and 92.7%, respectively) and small employers were significantly less likely (18.2%) to comply with the reporting rule. Enforcement inspections at 327 workplaces resulted in 403 violations; of those, 179 (54.7%) employers had not corrected the amputation hazard before the time of inspection.
    Discussion: Michigan employers reported less than half of the work-related amputations required by OSHA's reporting regulation. Noncompliance was greatest in small employers, and agriculture, forestry, fishing, and hunting; construction; arts, entertainment, and recreation; accommodation and food services; and retail and other service industries. Inspections found that over half of the employers had not corrected the hazard that caused the amputation at the time of the inspection's initial opening date; in these cases, abatement of any hazards identified would have occurred after the inspection. Improved compliance in employer reporting of work-related amputations will identify hazards posing a high risk of recurrence of injury to other workers from the same injury source. Greater compliance can also help target safety-related preventive and intervention efforts in industries that might otherwise be overlooked.

    Abstract Purpose: We evaluated the prevalence of opioid prescriptions after injury and associated characteristics among workers receiving workers' compensation for a lost work time injury.
    Methods: Injured workers identified in Michigan's Workers' Compensation records from 2016 to 2018 were linked to the opioid prescription history in the Michigan Automated Prescription System.
    Results: Among the 46,934 injured workers with paid claims, the prevalence of receiving an opioid prescription, morphine milligram equivalents (MME) per prescription, number of opioid prescription and probability of receiving opioids prescription>90 days after injury decreased from 2016-2018. Despite the decrease over 50% of the injured workers received an opioid prescription. Being over 34 years, a male, having had an opioid prescription before the injury, working in construction or having an amputation or sprain/strain of the shoulder had a significantly higher probability of receiving an opioid prescription, a higher MME per prescription, a higher number of opioid prescriptions and a higher probability having opioids prescription >90 days after the injury.
    Conclusions: Even though opioid prescribing patterns generally decreased from 2016 to 2018 (64.5-52.8%), injured workers in Michigan had a higher prevalence of opioid prescription after injury, than those reported from other states.

    Abstract Farming is one of the top industries in Michigan and has the highest fatality rate. National sources of non-fatal farm injuries underestimate the burden, especially among children. In this paper, we provide a more accurate estimate of non-fatal farm injuries in Michigan by using an ongoing multi-source surveillance system. Michigan's farm-injury surveillance system includes abstractions of hospital-based medical records, poison control center calls, ambulance runs, and workers' compensation claims for individuals with a farm-related injury. For this analysis, injury onset occurred in 2015 to 2021 and included all injuries regardless of age or occupation. We identified 4,306 injuries in adults and 336 injuries in youth. For those 0-13 years of age all but two were family members. For those 14-15 and 16-17 years of age, 19% and 45%, respectively were hired hands. For adults, 51% were owner/operators, 43% were hired hands, and 5% were family members. For all ages, the most frequent injury source was cattle. Lacerations/cuts/punctures were the most common type of injury for those < 14 years of age while for older individuals it was contusions/bruises. The plurality of injuries occurred in the summer months. Children working on a farm are in unique situation and tracking injuries and identifying injury sources provide necessary information to protect their health and well-being. Michigan's farm-injury surveillance system will continue to provide a comprehensive count of work-related injuries among Michigan's farming population. The information is used to direct public health intervention both at the individual and population level.

    Abstract Objective: The aim of the study is to investigate the cause of death among individuals diagnosed with chronic beryllium disease (CBD) or beryllium sensitization (BeS).
    Methods: Vital status, cause of death, and standardized mortality ratios for the underlying cause of death were determined for a cohort of 354 individuals with CBD and 290 individuals with BeS.
    Results: Among 216 deceased individuals, 153 had CBD and 63 had BeS. Nonmalignant respiratory deaths and other causes of death were significantly increased among those with CBD. No cause of death was significantly increased for BeS. Mortality from lung cancer was not increased.
    Conclusions: Individuals with CBD had an overall increased mortality risk due to increased respiratory mortality regardless of their duration of exposure to beryllium. Individuals with BeS did not have increased respiratory mortality. No increased risk of lung cancer was seen among this cohort.
