The Status And Intervention Of Occupational Hazards' "Knowledge, Attitude And Practice" About Manufacturing Industry Workers In Shenzhen

Objective: To find out the manufacturing industry workers' status on occupational hazards of "knowledge, attitude and practice"; analysis the various factors about workers' occupational hazards of "knowledge, attitude and practice"; explore the possible way about occupational hazards health education activities on workers who contact occupational hazards.Methods: Select the manufacturing industry workers in Bao'an District Gongming Street in Shenzhen as the investigated object, divided them into intervention and control groups, collect their status on occupational hazards of "knowledge, attitude and practice" and correlative laboratory inspection; give the community intervention to the workers who selected in the intervention group. After the intervention is ending, investigate the two groups' workers' occupational hazards of "knowledge, attitude and practice" again. Evaluating the effect of intervention according to compare the change between baseline and endline's occupational hazards of "knowledge,attitude and practice".Results: There is 284 survey object in the baseline,131 workers are in the intervention group, the average of "knowledge, attitude and practice" total score is 70.46; 153 workers are in control group, the average of total score is 70.80,there is no statistical significance between them. Knowledge, Attitude and Practice each part's average score and the laboratory inspection results are also has no statistical significance between the two groups. After the intervention, there is 257 survey object in the endline,122 workers are in the intervention group, the average of "knowledge, attitude and practice" total score is 75.84; 135 workers are in control group, the average of total score is 69.70,there is observably statistical significance between them(p<0.001). Knowledge and Practice part's average score are also has statistical significance between the two groups, but there is no statistical significance in Attitude part's average score between the tow groups. The Knowledge's score's factors include the time stayed in the factory, native place, every month's incoming, work time for every week, having physical examination or not in last one year; the Attitude's score's factors include having physical examination or not in last one year, type of work, work time for the type of work, Knowledge's score; the Practice' score's factors include age, having physical examination or not in last one year, type of work, work time for every week, working period, time for rest caused by disease or injury every year, the result of laboratory inspection, Knowledge's score, the Attitude's score; "knowledge, attitude and practice" total score's factors include age, native place, education level, having physical examination or not in last one year, type of work, work time for every week, time for rest caused by disease or injury every year.Conclusions: Recently, the status on occupational hazards of Knowledge, Attitude and Practice is not optimistic. Age, native place, education level, having physical examination or not in last one year, type of work, work time for every week, time for rest caused by disease or injury every year, have come to be the factors of "knowledge, attitude and practice" total score. Occupational hazards health education's community intervention have improved the manufacturing industry workers' knowledge about occupational hazards , have some modifications on the prevention of occupational hazards to the enthusiasm and initiative, but the effect of improving the workers' actual health state is not clear yet. Health education's community intervention have got some effect, develop a number of human resources in the objective locale, to ensure the sustainability of the similar investigations and interventions in the future. But in the next step, still need to strengthen the exploration and study about occupational hazards' health education methods, by more understandable, easier to believe and more acceptable manner to the workers, to find more effective health education methods, for actually improving the health status of workers, and promoting such methods in the other similar areas.
