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 Employment is expressed as an annual average and is derived primarily from

the BLS-State Covered Employment and Wages program. Employment for private

households (SIC 88) is excluded. 5 Total lost workday cases involve days away from work, or days of restricted

work activity, or both. 6 Days-away-from-work cases include those which result in days away from work

with or without restricted work activity. 7 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 8 Data conforming to OSHA definitions for mining operators in coal, metal, and

nonmetal mining and for employers in railroad transportation are provided to BLS by

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

Federal Railroad Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation. Independent

mining contractors are excluded from the coal, metal, and nonmetal mining industries. 9 Incidence rate less than 0.05.

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

n.e.c. = not elsewhere classified. – Indicates data not available.
