     1  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  North American Industry Classification System 2007 Edition.
     4  Employment is expressed as an annual average and is derived primarily from the BLS-State 
Quarterly Census of Employment and Wages.
     5  Days-away-from-work cases include those that result in days away from work with or 
without job transfer or restriction.
     6  Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees.
     7  Data for mining (Sector 21 in the North American Industry Classification System -- United States, 
 2007) include establishments not governed by the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA)  
rules and reporting, such as those in oil and gas extraction and related support activities. 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 the Occupational 
Safety and Health Administration made to its recordkeeping requirements effective January 1, 2002; 
therefore estimates for these industries are not comparable to estimates in other industries.
     8 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 the Occupational Safety and Health Administration made 
to its recordkeeping requirements effective January 1, 2002; therefore estimates for these industries are not
comparable to estimates in other industries.
     9  Data for employers in rail transportation are provided to BLS by the Federal Railroad
Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation.  
     10  Data too small to be displayed.
NOTE: Because of rounding, components may not add to totals. Dash indicates data do not meet
publication guidelines.
