ABSTRACT

Introduction. Occupational injuries are divided into accidents that occur within working hours as occupational diseases caused either by the type of activity performed or by the place where the functions are performed. It has been one of the biggest concerns worldwide in occupational health regulations, mortality has been declining, but even so, the data is currently worrying around the world. Methodology. The data was mainly obtained from the Global Burden of Disease and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. The study was carried out with standardized and gross rates for the years lived with disability, years of life lost, years of life adjusted for disability, healthy years of life lost and mortality, which all these data were grouped by age and age group. Results. During the period under study, it was possible to determine that the mortality rate was in decline from 1990 to 2017, which decreased from 9.51 deaths per 100 000 people to 4.44, the male sex being always between 15 and 49 years old and the lowest mortality rate for women, in older people 70 years old. Conclusions. The mortality rate was higher for the year 1990 in males and in people between 15 and 49 years, however, there is evidence of a decrease compared to the years under study
