What Activity is the Most Dangerous to Work in? Estimation of the Risk Level of Economic Activities in Ecuador

Our results help mitigate the uncertainty in the current risk classification of economic activities' lack of methodological rigor and evaluate the relevance of using data from the ENEMDU survey. They also allow a comparison of two risk classifications developed from different methodologies and data sources. From a practical perspective, the results will help decision-makers clarify current regulations in Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) policies.
