NIOSH Study on Impact of Business Cycle on Workplace Injuries
From NIOSH –
A recent NIOSH study published in the Journal of Safety Research identified cyclically sensitive sectors and explored potential mechanisms through which the business cycle affected the incidence of nonfatal workplace injuries across different sectors. The study findings highlighted the importance of considering the different mechanisms that affect injury in different sectors as the economy slows down or “heats up.” http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/journal/00224375
