Safety in supply chains: Evaluating sources of evidence

Gillespie, Caroline (2020) Safety in supply chains: Evaluating sources of evidence. PhD thesis, Queensland University of Technology.

Description

Focussed on supply chains and vulnerable workers, this research aims to address gaps in understanding the: • quality, completeness and usefulness of key data sources for occupational injury surveillance • occupational injury patterns and trends across different data collections (hospitalised injuries, workers' compensation claims and regulator reports) • regulator enforcement data patterns and trends • how parties communicate, consult and coordinate regarding hazards and risks to health and safety across supply chain operations.

This research identified opportunities to achieve a more complete occupational-injury surveillance profile that could better identify the at-risk worker population and enable regulators to employ more risk-responsive supply chain interventions.

Citation counts are sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science® citation databases.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
