Quality assessment of reports of occupational hazards periodic monitoring in Shanghai Pudong New Area

  • Objective To understand the work on identifying and evaluating occupational hazards by employers in Shanghai Pudong New Area and to provide technical support for occupational health technical service institutions to improve service quality and for government departments to enhance institutional management.
    Methods From June to December 2023, 50 periodic monitoring reports of occupational hazards were reviewed and scored, based on both self-compiled "Quality Evaluation Form of Occupational Hazards Regular Testing Report in Pudong New Area" and occupational health surveys on-site.
    Results The average score of the 50 regular testing reports was (6.69 ±0.51) points, in which the differences in the scores of the reports between former Class A and former Class B organizations, public and private organizations, and the different sizes of enterprises involved in the reports were not statistically significant (all P > 0.05). The median score rate for each inspection item ranged from 50.0% to 100%, with statistically significant differences among different items (P < 0.05). The inspection items with relatively low scores included mainly the engineering analysis, the analysis of protective facilities against occupational hazards, the conclusions and suggestions of occupational hazards measurement, and the authenticity of technical services (for example, image data). Common issues included incomplete information on production processes and raw materials, inaccurate identification and exposure status of occupational hazards, unclear descriptions of protective facilities against occupational hazards, incomplete information on planning occupational hazards measurement, lack of targeted prevention suggestions against occupational disease, and missing or non-standard image data. The proportion of reports with these deficiencies ranged from 74% to 100%, and the proportion of service providers with these deficiencies ranged from 84.2% to 100%.
    Conclusions The overall quality of regular testing reports on occupational hazards in Pudong New Area was relatively low. The main deficiencies were related to employers' lack of attention to the identification and evaluation of occupational hazards and insufficient professional capacity of occupational health technical service institutions. Service quality should be improved by strengthening employers' responsibility for occupational disease prevention, enhancing training and learning for occupational health technical service institutions, and improving the regulatory efficiency of these institutions.
