to continue its data initiative to collect occupational injury and 
illness data and information on the number of workers employed and the 
number of hours worked from establishments in portions of the private 
sector and from some state and local government agencies. These data 
will allow OSHA to calculate occupational injury and illness rates and 
to focus its efforts on individual workplaces with ongoing series 
safety and health problems. Successful implementation of the data 
collection initiative is critical to OSHA's outreach and enforcement 
efforts and the data requirements tied to the Government Performance 
and Results Act.
