 AEMS WORKPLACE OVERVIEW


AEMS allows safety professionals total control of the incident reporting process including what is collected, when it is collected, the workflow and extent of notification based on type of incident, severity and confidentiality.


We take the view that a useful solution would look at the incident as the primary focus.

 


 We give you the opportunity to see corporate safety issues as they occur. This information can then be shared to examine problem areas.

Workplace Statistics
  1. An estimated 630,000 Canadians – nearly three-quarters of them men and nearly three-quarters employed in blue-collar occupations sustained at least one non-fatal activity-limiting injury at work according to a new study. Stats Canada July 10, 2007
    The survey estimated that about 460,000 men, or 5% of the male workforce, had suffered an on-the-job injury, compared with 170,000 women, or 2% of the female workforce. This amounted to an overall workplace injury rate of 4%.
  2. Nearly 1 worker in 10 (9%) in trades, transport and equipment operation sustained an on-the-job injury. This was more than four times the rate of 2% among people employed in white-collar occupations, such as business, finance and administration. Among the workers at highest risk were machinists and metal formers and shapers, 13% of whom suffered at least one work-related injury in 2003.
  3. 28% of all work-related injuries involved the hand, followed by the lower back (16%). Hand injuries accounted for one-third of injuries to sales and service workers, while for white-collar workers; a lower-back injury was reported most often.
  4. Fractures accounted for 19% of injuries sustained by those working in agriculture, forestry, and other primary industries, significantly above the 11% share for all workers.
  5. Burns or scalds made up almost 15% of injuries sustained by sales and service workers.
  6. Overexertion or strenuous movements and falls accounted for nearly 50% of all work injuries.
  7. About 6% of men aged 18 to 34 suffered a work-related injury, compared with 5.4% of men aged 35 to 44, the next highest-risk group. At older ages, the risk of work injury declined even more.
  8. The odds of injury were 40% higher for men who worked 45 to 79 hours a week than they were for those who worked less than 35 hours a week.
  9. Individuals who smoked on a daily basis had a higher likelihood of work injury compared with occasional or non-smokers.
  10. Corporate studies indicate the injury rate for contractors is 3 times that of direct employees of major corporations.
  11. According to the AWCBC, over 52,900 young workers aged 15-24 suffered time loss injuries. Young workers account for 20.5 % of workplace injuries yet represent 17.5 % of those employed.
  12. The Province of Alberta reported $1,534,500 in penalties for workplace infractions in 2006.
