This analysis presents differences in acute work injury rates among electric utility linemen who perform different work tasks. Incidence-density rate ratios were the primary measure of association and are based on the work injury and person-time data for each job title. Logistic regression was used
Surveillance data suggest high rates of electrocutions and fatal falls among workers in electric utility companies, who may be exposed to electric current, heights, flammable agents, and frequent motor vehicle travel. To characterize the occurrence of fatal injuries among electric utility workers, w
## Abstract Powerβfrequency electric and magnetic fields are known to exhibit marked temporal variation, yet in the absence of clear biological indications, the most appropriate summary indices for use in epidemiologic studies are unknown. In order to assess the statistical patterns among candidate
Overall mortality trends among an electric utility workforce are examined. The study cohort (n 5 40,335) included all workers with at least 1 year of work experience from 1960-1991; 3,753 deaths were observed in this cohort. Standardized mortality ratios (SMRs) and internal cohort analyses were used
