Summary:
This Data Challenge explores injury trends in repetitive tasks across three facilities operating multiple shifts. Students are presented with background information about the rising number of workplace injuries at BoriMetals, Inc., which they will use to analyze cross-sectional data that include the number of injuries, total hours worked, and task type by facility and shift. The goal is to use statistical tools to identify high-risk combinations of task and shift, validate findings, and recommend where operational changes must be focused. Students will engage in descriptive statistics, statistical tests for independence, and analysis of variance (or proportion comparisons) to support their recommendations.
