Abstract：
Forestry provides a wide range of employment opportunities worldwide and is seen as one of the high-risk industries in terms of occupational accidents.
The submitted study analyzed the injury rate in the Military Forests and Estates of the Slovak Republic (62.6 thousand ha) between 2013 and 2022.
The data analyses included regression and correlation analyses, χ2 tests to analyze the relationships between studied variables, and incidence rates.
During the observed period, employees suffered 26 occupational accidents, of which 19.2% were light, 57.7% were registered, 23.1% were severe, and 0% were fatal. For every 1 million m3 of harvested timber, 7.7 accidents occurred. The incidence rate during the observed period was 672.1/100,000 employees. The highest proportion of accidents was in the age group 51-60 years and in employees with the lowest length of work experience <5 years. Regarding time, the highest proportion of occupational accidents occurred between 8:01 and 10:00 AM (53.8%) and day-wise on Thursdays (46.2%). The highest proportion of accidents occurred among forest workers (65.3%) during pruning and silviculture activities (42.3%). The most common injury site was forest stands (65.3%). Superficial injuries (34.6%) were the most common, mainly affecting the lower limbs (50%). The most frequent material agents causing the accidents were work and transport areas as sources of worker fall (38.5%), and the most frequent reason for an accident to occur was the lack of personal requirements for proper work performance (92.4%), whereas only (3.8%) of accidents occurred due to the use of forbidden or hazardous working procedures.
The presented study identified the most vulnerable worker groups and provided an overview of the overall injury rate at the state forest company in Slovakia. The documentation can be incorporated into the safety strategies of forest enterprises.

摘要：
■林业在全球范围内提供了广泛的就业机会，并且在职业事故方面被视为高风险行业之一。
■提交的研究分析了2013年至2022年间斯洛伐克共和国军事森林和庄园（62.6万公顷）的伤害率。
■数据分析包括回归分析和相关分析，χ2检验分析研究变量之间的关系，和发病率。
■在观察期间，员工遭受了26起职业事故，其中19.2%是轻的，57.7%登记，23.1％严重，0%是致命的。每100万立方米采伐的木材，7.7事故发生。观察期间的发病率为672.1/100,000名员工。事故的比例最高的是51-60岁年龄组，最低工作经验<5年的员工。关于时间,职业事故的最高比例发生在上午8:01至10:00（53.8％），并且在周四（46.2％）逐日发生。森林工人在修剪和造林活动中发生事故的比例最高（65.3％）（42.3％）。最常见的伤害部位是林分（65.3％）。最常见的是浅表损伤(34.6%),主要影响下肢（50%）。造成事故的最常见的材料代理是工作和运输地区，因为工人来源下降（38.5％），事故发生的最常见原因是缺乏对适当工作表现的个人要求(92.4%)，而仅（3.8％）的事故是由于使用了禁止或危险的工作程序而发生的。
■所提出的研究确定了最脆弱的工人群体，并概述了斯洛伐克国家森林公司的总体伤害率。该文档可以纳入林业企业的安全策略。
