Abstract

Work-related fatal injuries are predominantly a problem among males. The group most affected is those aged 55 years and over. In some European countries the mortality rate from work injuries has decreased for both sexes, but the greater reduction among female workers maintains the trends, since 2011, of
predominance of fatal injuries among males.
