BACKGROUND: Private and Public security and law enforcement (SLE) sectors perform
multiple overlapping job duties. METHODS: Workers' compensation (WC) SLE first
reports of injury (FROI) data (2005-2015) were analyzed to describe injuries,
identify differences in awarded WC benefits, and compare the probability of a
FROI resulting in awarded benefits between Public and Private SLE. A Pearson's
chi-square test was utilized and reverse selection logistic regression was
performed to estimate the odds ratio that a FROI would result in an awarded
benefit for Private vs. Public SLE, while adjusting for relevant covariates.
RESULTS: Private SLE had higher FROI percentages for younger and for older
workers, fall injuries, and back injuries, compared to Public SLE. The adjusted
odds that a FROI resulted in an awarded benefit was 1.4 times higher for Private
SLE compared to Public SLE; (95% confidence interval [CI]?=?1.09,1.69).
Middle-aged SLE employee adjusted odds of awarded benefits was 3.3 times (95% CI
[1.96, 5.39]) higher compared to younger employees. Adjusted odds of awarded
benefits was 3.8 times (95% CI [1.34, 10.61]) higher for gunshots and 1.7 times
(95% CI [1.22, 2.39]) higher for fractures/dislocations compared to other nature
of injuries. Motor vehicle injury, fall/slip, and strain related FROIs had
elevated adjusted odds of awarded benefits compared to other injury causes.
CONCLUSIONS: Results highlight the importance of injury prevention education and
worker safety training for Private and Public SLE sector workers on fall
prevention (especially in Private SLE) and strain prevention (especially in
Public SLE), as well as motor vehicle safety.
