Work accident victims: a comparison between non-standard and standard workers in Belgium.

CONCLUSION: The present data do not support the hypothesis that non-standard workers have more injuries than standard workers. Our results about occupational accidents derived from a non-representative sample of the Belgian workforce and cannot be generalized due to the heterogeneity in job organization and labor regulations between countries. Further research is needed to extend our findings and to seek other factors that may be associated with work accidents. PMID: 27092408 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
