Abstract
Specific Objectives: 1. Explain dynamics of injury risk over time by:
1.1. Describing the circumstances of incidents leading to an injury (injury risks or dynamics of incident)
1.2. Describing the circumstances of near-miss incident where no injury or illness occurs (incident risks)
1.3. Measuring frequency and severity of injuries (burden)
1.4. Describe perceptions of risks amongst owner/manager/workers

2. Design acceptable interventions to reduce injury risks

3. Document intervention feasibility by:
3.1. Describing acceptability, capturing adherence to interventions and changes in risk perceptions
3.2. Describing practicality:
3.2.1. Documenting operational challenges and lessons learned
3.2.2. Capturing resources (human resources, time, materials and cost) of implementation

4. Describe any changes in worker safety behaviour and incident incidence rate
