Background: The purpose of this study was to model the causes and extent of negligence of occupational accidents assessed by labor office inspectors and official experts of the Judiciary of Isfahan Province, Iran, from the perspective of health, safety, and environment (HSE) management.
Methods: This descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study was conducted to determine the causes and extent of negligence of agent or agents of occupational accidents in some industries and workshops in Isfahan Province. In this study, the data were collected by census, which after reviewing all the cases, finally 367 cases were completed and examined.
Findings: The lowest agreement on the percentage of negligence of the victims was related to the opinion of the inspector and the opinion of the seven-member board [intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) = 31.5%]. Most agreement between the five-member and seven-member boards was in determining the percentage of the employer's failure. Moreover, disagreement was observed more in determining the percentage of negligence of the victim. Statistically, there was no significant difference between the three-member and five-member staff in any of the potential causes of the accidents (P > 0.05). For the cause of carelessness and negligence, there was a weak agreement between the inspector's opinion and the opinions of three-member and seven-member boards.
Conclusion: Based on the results, people who have more work experience receive less failure percentage. However, if the injured person has a higher work experience in the current job, he has a higher percentage of negligence in the accident which has occurred.
