Abstract:

This paper reviews the relevant concepts,current status,and its main measurement tools of medical staff's perceived risk of occupational injuries. The influencing factors of medical personnel's occupational injury risk perception are analyzed in terms of demographic factors(e.g. gender,age,years of working experience,etc.),individual trait factors(e.g. psychological state,emotional response,etc.),and social environment factors(e.g. interpersonal relationship in the workplace,organizational support,etc.). Comprehensive related studies were conducted to summarize the measures that can help medical staff maintain a reasonable level of perceived risk of occupational injury,including strengthening the cultivation of individual risk awareness,optimizing the social support system,and enhancing the safety of the work environment. In the future,the development of assessment tools for occupational injury risk perception of medical personnel,the innovation of the content and method of education and training on occupational injury risk perception of medical personnel,and the provision of appropriate internal and external environmental support for medical personnel should be actively pursued. The above review is intended to provide a reference for the innovation of localized occupational injury risk perception training models and assessment tools,as well as the promotion of positive risk management behaviours among medical personnel.
