Despite statistics indicating that China has the world’s largest taxi industry, there exists limited research about the relationship between workplace health hazards and taxi driver occupational crashes. In this paper, a cross-sectional survey of taxi drivers in four typical Chinese cities was conducted, and data on their self-reported job stress, health status, and daily risky driving behaviours, together with crash involvement experience in the two years before the survey was collected. Three hypotheses were then developed, and they were verified  via  multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) that the seriousness of drivers’ health problems and the frequency of their daily risky driving behaviours could be the accurate predictor of their crash risk of taxi drivers. These factors were subsequently substituted in a bivariate negative binomial (BNB) distribution model to determine the joint rate of at-fault taxi drivers’ involvement in property-damage-only (PDO) and personal-injury (PI) crashes. The results offer some useful advice for policy development to decrease and prevent professional taxi drivers from causing severe traffic crashes.

Can job stress, health status and risky driving behaviours predict the crash risk level of taxi drivers? New evidence from China
