Survey of Occupational Injuries

and Illnesses, 2002

1

 See, “Workplace Injuries and Illnesses in 2002,” USDL-03-913

(Bureau of Labor Statistics, Dec. 18, 2003). 2

 See, “National Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries, 2002,”

USDL-03-488 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, Sept. 17, 2003).

Wide variations exist in the frequency of nonfatal

workplace incidents by industry, even among

industries producing similar types of goods and

services. For example, the total case rate for injuries and

illnesses in the electronic components and accessories group

(Standard Industrial Classification, SIC 367) was 3.1 per 100

full-time workers in 2002. At the detailed industry level, total

case rates ranged from 12.5 in electron tubes (SIC 3671)

to 1.9 in semiconductors and related devices (SIC 3674). (See

table 1.)

Private industry reported approximately 4.7 million nonfatal injuries and illnesses in 2002, with services accounting

for about 27 percent of the cases (approximately 1.3 million),

and wholesale and retail trade and manufacturing each accounting for about 25 percent (approximately 1.2 million) of

the cases. Table 2 shows the number of injuries and illnesses

by industry in 2002.

This summary report provides industry detail on results

of the 2002 Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses

conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). Data for

major industrial groups (such as health services, water transportation, and primary metal industries) were published in

December 2003.1 The tables in this report provide detailed

industry information (incidence rates and numbers of cases)

on nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses for three- and

four-digit industries (for example, hospitals, water transportation services, and steel pipe and tubes), as defined in the

1987 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual.

The 2002 survey does not measure workplace fatalities;

however, they are captured by the BLS Census of Fatal

Occupational Injuries. Nationwide results of the 2002 fatality census were released in September 2003.2

In addition to the injury and illness summary data presented in this report, the 2002 BLS survey provides details

on the characteristics (occupation, age, gender, race, and

length of service) of the more seriously injured and ill workers. The survey also provides details on the circumstances

(nature of the injury or illness, part of body affected, event or

exposure, and primary and secondary sources of the injury

or illness) of workers’ injuries and illnesses. More seriously

is defined for this survey as involving days away from work,

not counting the day on which the incident occurred. This

information is scheduled for publication in a news release in

March 2004. A comprehensive bulletin containing additional

details on characteristics such as size of establishment and

broad illness category will be available at a later date.

Incidence rates per 100 full-time employees for nonfatal

workplace injuries and illnesses are presented in table 1; the

corresponding numbers of nonfatal injuries and illnesses are

presented in table 2. Logs kept by private industry employers during the year are used in the annual survey to develop

estimates of the number and frequency (incidence rates) of

nonfatal workplace injuries and illnesses. Employer logs

reflect the year’s injury and illness experience, as well as the

employer’s understanding of which cases are work-related

under current recordkeeping guidelines of the U.S. Department of Labor. The numbers of injuries and illnesses reported in any given year also can be influenced by changes

in the level of economic activity, working conditions and

work practices, worker experience and training, and the number of hours worked.

 Revisions to the Survey of Occupational

Injuries and Illnesses

Effective January 1, 2002, the Occupational Safety and

Health Administration (OSHA) revised its requirements

for recording occupational injuries and illnesses. The

BLS Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses, the

primary source for the estimates of occupational injuries and illnesses, is based on employers’ records of

injuries and illnesses. Due to the revised recordkeeping

rule, the estimates from the 2002 survey are not comparable with those from previous years.

1 The incidence rates represent the number of injuries and

illnesses per 100 full-time workers and were calculated as: (N/EH) x

200,000, where 

N = number of injuries and illnesses 

EH = total hours worked by all employees during the 

calendar year 

200,000 = base for 100 equivalent full-time workers 

(working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year)

2 Totals include data for industries not shown separately. 3 Standard Industrial Classification Manual, 1987 Edition. 4 Days-away-from-work cases include those which result in days

away from work with or without job transfer or restriction. 5 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 6 Data for mining (Division B in the Standard Industrial

Classification Manual, 1987 Edition) include establishments not

governed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) rules

and reporting, such as those in oil and gas extraction. Data for mining

operators in coal, metal, and nonmetal mining are provided to BLS by

the Mine Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. 

Independent mining contractors are excluded from the coal, metal, and

nonmetal mining industries. These data do not reflect the changes

OSHA made to its recordkeeping requirements effective January 1,

2002; therefore, estimates for these industries are not comparable with

estimates for other industries. 7 Data for mining operators in this industry are provided to BLS by

the Mine Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. 

Independent mining contractors are excluded. These data do not

reflect the changes OSHA made to its recordkeeping requirements

effective January 1, 2002; therefore, estimates for these industries are

not comparable with estimates for other industries. 8 Incidence rate less than 0.05. 9 Data for employers in railroad transportation are provided to BLS

by the Federal Railroad Administration, U.S. Department of

Transportation. These data do not reflect the changes OSHA made to

its recordkeeping requirements effective January 1, 2002; therefore,

estimates for these industries are not comparable with estimates for

other industries.

NOTE: Because of rounding, components may not add to totals. 

Dash indicates data not available. The n.e.c. abbreviation means that

the category includes those components not elsewhere classified.

1 Totals include data for industries not shown separately. 2 Standard Industrial Classification Manual, 1987 Edition. 3 Days-away-from-work cases include those which result in days

away from work with or without job transfer or restriction. 4 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 5 Fewer than 50 cases. 6 Data for mining (Division B in the Standard Industrial

Classification Manual, 1987 Edition) include establishments not

governed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) rules

and reporting, such as those in oil and gas extraction. Data for mining

operators in coal, metal, and nonmetal mining are provided to BLS by

the Mine Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. 

Independent mining contractors are excluded from the coal, metal, and

nonmetal mining industries. These data do not reflect the changes

OSHA made to its recordkeeping requirements effective January 1,

2002; therefore, estimates for these industries are not comparable with

estimates for other industries. 7 Data for mining operators in this industry are provided to BLS by

the Mine Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor. 

Independent mining contractors are excluded. These data do not

reflect the changes OSHA made to its recordkeeping requirements

effective January 1, 2002; therefore, estimates for these industries are

not comparable with estimates for other industries. 8 Data for employers in railroad transportation are provided to BLS

by the Federal Railroad Administration, U.S. Department of

Transportation. These data do not reflect the changes OSHA made to

its recordkeeping requirements effective January 1, 2002; therefore,

estimates for these industries are not comparable with estimates for

other industries.

NOTE: Because of rounding, components may not add to totals. 

Dash indicates data not available. The n.e.c. abbreviation means that

the category includes those components not elsewhere classified.

Data sources

Information in this report is from the Survey of Occupational

Injuries and Illnesses, a Federal/State cooperative program

in which employer reports are collected and processed by

State agencies cooperating with the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A sample of 182,800 establishments representing the

total private economy (except for mines and railroads) was

surveyed for 2002.

The survey is limited to private industry. It excludes the

self-employed, farms with fewer than 11 employees, private

households, and employees in Federal, State, and local government agencies. Under a separate system, agencies of the

Federal Government file work injury and illness reports with

the U.S. Secretary of Labor.

Nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses for coal, metal,

and nonmetal mining and for railroad activities were reported

to the Bureau of Labor Statistics by the Mine Safety and

Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor and

by the Federal Railroad Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation, respectively.

The survey includes the following private industries: Agriculture, forestry, and fishing, SIC 01-09; oil and gas extraction, SIC 13; sulfur mining, part of SIC 14; construction, SIC

15-17; manufacturing, SIC 20-39; transportation and public

utilities, SIC 41-42 and 44-49; wholesale and retail trade, SIC

50-59; finance, insurance, and real estate, SIC 60-67; and

services, SIC 70-87 and 89. Establishments are classified in

industry categories based on the 1987 Standard Industrial

Classification (SIC) Manual, U.S. Office of Management

and Budget.

Definitions

The definitions of occupational injuries and illnesses are

from 29 Code of Federal Regulations Part 1904, Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses

Technical Note

(Occupational Safety and Health Administration, January 19,

2001).

Recordable case is an injury or illness that results in any of

the following: Death, loss of consciousness, days away from

work, restricted work activity or job transfer, or medical treatment beyond first aid. Also, cases that involve a significant

injury or illness diagnosed by a physician or other licensed

health care professional, even if it does not result in death,

loss of consciousness, days away from work, restricted work

activity or job transfer, or medical treatment beyond first aid

are considered recordable cases.

Cases with days away from work are cases that involve

days away from work, with or without job transfer or restriction.

Cases with job transfer or restriction are cases in which a

worker cannot perform the routine functions of his or her

job, or cannot work the full workday that he or she would

have been scheduled to work.

Other recordable cases are cases that do not involve days

away from work or days of job transfer or restriction.

Incidence rates represent the number of injuries and/or illnesses per 100 full-time workers, and were calculated as:

(N/EH) X 200,000, where:

N number of injuries and/or illnesses

EH total hours worked by all employees during the

calendar year

200,000 base for 100 full-time equivalent workers

(working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year)
