택시 운전자의 사망 및 위반에 관한 로지스틱 회귀분석

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Objective: This research aims to analyze the occupational deaths and violation of the Korean taxi drivers and to find out the effect of factors for recommendations on injury prevention.

Background: Although there are many studies on traffic accidents, there are few studies on taxis, which are the main means of transportation. Moreover, There is little research on the industrial accidents of taxi drivers.

Method: The data of 586 taxi drivers approved as industrial accidents compensation of years 2015 and 2016 were analyzed. Significant variables explaining deaths and violation were identified by binary logistic regression.

Results: Drivers aged 65 or older are more likely to die from accidents than those under 65 (OR (odds ratio): 1.85, p =0.048). In addition, violations were more likely to lead to death than no-violation (OR: 1.94, p =0.046). Facial injuries were more likely to lead to death (OR: 2.38, p =0.003) and encephalorrhagia injuries were more likely to lead to death (OR: 3.82, p <0.001).

Conclusion: In order to prevent accidents of the elderly drivers, it is necessary to reinforce safety education and to manage the driving license renewal cycles according to the ages. In addition, a system for integrated management of taxi transportation should be established to improve the working environment of older taxi drivers. Systematic approach is necessary to alert taxi drivers to the fatal consequences of traffic violations and to make them to comply with the traffic rules.

Application: The effects of the significant variables on deaths and violations can be used as a guideline to develop systematic measures for prevention of accidents for the taxi drivers.
