Aim: The purpose of this study was to model the causes and negligence of occupational accidents assessed by labor inspectors and justice official experts of Isfahan province from the perspective of health, safety, and environment management. Materials and Methods: This is a descriptive-analytical cross-sectional study that was conducted cross-sectionally to determine the causes of occupational accidents in some industries and workshops in Isfahan province. Data collection was by census, which after reviewing all cases, finally 367 cases completed by inspectors of the labor and justice official experts of Isfahan province have been reviewed. Results: The results showed that regarding the injured person's negligence percent, the least agreement was related to the opinion of the inspector and the opinion of the 7-member panel (intra-class correlation coefficient = 31.5%) and then the lowest agreement was related to the opinion of the inspector with the opinions of 3- and 5-member panels. There is a high level of agreement among all groups to determine the percentage of negligence for the contractor (>60%). There was no statistically significant difference between the 3-member and 5-member staff in any of the potential causes of the accident (P > 0.05). This disagreement is seen in 40% of cases. The results showed that the disagreement between the 3-member and the 5-member panels is 27%. The rate of disagreement between the 5-member and 7-member panels is 10%. Conclusion: Based on the results, people who have more work experience receive less negligence percentage. However, if the injured person has a higher work experience in the current job, the accident occurred with a higher percentage of negligence.
