跌倒事故在世界各國都是職業傷害與死亡的主要成因之一，也是國人十大意外事故與職業災害之原因。在台灣有關畜牧場的職業安全衛生的研究很少，多數的報告皆是偏向生物氣膠調查以及抗生素對人體危害，惟國內有關畜牧業勞工跌倒之探討現今仍極度缺乏，且影響跌倒之因素多元化，本研究對象以某畜牧公司為例：1.藉由問卷調查來評估配種舍、分娩舍、保育舍以及肉豬舍跌倒事故的發生率。2.分析畜牧業勞工的產生跌倒原因及其相關的影響因素，從預防觀點進而去執行預防措施，避免跌倒事故的發生。本研究分析結果顯示肉豬舍勞工發生跌倒的經驗為整個肉豬舍的78.5%，高於整體平均值的58.6%。發生跌倒受傷的部位以腳（74.4%）以及手（53.8%）受傷為最多。在防跌倒知識測試分析中可以發現防跌倒知識與跌倒經驗存在顯著相關（ｐ=0.001）。在健康狀態與跌倒經驗分析中，可以發現胸悶喘不過氣和跌倒經驗存在顯著相關（p=0.007），可能因為較容易注意力不集中/分心，對事物的反應或地面條件變更反應不及而導致跌倒。肉豬前期與肉豬後期皆是最容易發生跌倒的地方。在預防跌倒策略中，建議要清除地面障礙物、維持地表靜摩擦係數達0.5以上並且加強跌倒的教育訓練，以減少跌倒造成的傷害。 Data shows fall accidents in the world are one of the main causes leading to occupational injury or death, so does the situation in Taiwan as one of the top ten accidents. There are seldom studies related to occupational safety and health in livestock farms in Taiwan, for example falls, instead most of them are towards bioaerosol investigation or harm of antibiotics to humans. Factors to falls can be diversified. This study was conducted in a farming company : 1. assessed the fall accident rate in breeding shed, farrowing shed, nursery shed and pig shed by questionnaire; 2. analyzed fall causes and related factors among animal husbandry workers, and then implemented preventive measures from prevention point of view, to avoid fall accidents.The study results showed the fall rate of workers in pig shed reached 78.5% (the average was 58.6%） and the main injured sites were feet (74.4%） and hands (53.8%）. Anti-fall in the knowledge test and analysis can be found in fall prevention knowledge and experience exists fall significantly associated（p = 0.001）. In health status and fall empirical analysis can be found in significant relevant experience tightness of breath and falls presence （p = 0.007）. Probably because it is more easily distracted, things change response or reaction is less than ground conditions caused by falls. Early hogs and late hog are the most prone to fall in place.Livestock workers working in any sector are considered early in the hog and late in the hog are the most prone to fall in place. In terms of the fall prevention strategies, it is recommended to clear obstacles on the ground, maintain the surface static friction coefficient being 0.5 or more and strengthen education and training to fall prevention to reduce related damage.
