Briefings
An analysis of Brazil's occupational accident data reveals that ten specific job categories account for nearly one-third of all recorded work-related accidents between January 2023 and May 2026. The top ten jobs collectively recorded 548,612 incidents, representing 29.8% of the total 1.8 million accident reports. Key findings include the top two positions being line production workers and electricians, followed by agricultural workers, nursing technicians, and housekeepers. The report highlights that while absolute numbers identify high-risk sectors, the data does not isolate specific hazards or injury types, limiting conclusions about which jobs pose the greatest risk.
Key points
- Ten specific job categories account for nearly one-third of all recorded work-related accidents between January 2023 and May 2026.
- The top two positions are line production workers and electricians, with 100,481 and 100,032 incidents respectively.
Context
This analysis comes from an Anamt report published on November 10, 2026, covering the period from January 2023 to May 2026. The data helps identify high-risk environments and processes requiring special attention from companies and health services.
Limitations
The evidence is limited to the period from January 2023 to May 2026. The report does not isolate specific hazards or injury types, making it difficult to determine which jobs pose the greatest risk. The data provides absolute numbers but does not offer causal claims or opinions on accident causes.
