Objectives Long working hours can lead to an accumulation in fatigue that may increase worker's risk of injury. However, it is not known if this association is different for men and women. Our aim was, therefore, to investigate gender differences in the effect of weekly working hours on occupational injury risk.

Results Of 96 915 workers, 705 (0.75%) reported an injury in the last 3 months. Injury rates were higher among men and increased with increasing working hours for both genders.

However, results of the adjusted logistic regression model indicated an interactive effect of working hours and gender on injury risk [odds ratio (OR) 1.02, 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 1.00-1.03). Injury risk increased among women working 41-50 hours/week (OR 1.51,95% CI 1.03-2.21 ) and > 50 hours/week (OR 1.69,95% CI 1.06-2.70) compared to 31-40 hours/week but not among men.

Conclusions The findings indicate an increase in injury risk with increasing working hours among women but not men.
