| 1 Incidence rates represent the number of injuries and/or illnesses per 100 full-time workers (10,000 full-time workers for illness rates) and were calculated as: (N/EH) x 200,000 (20,000,000 for illness rates) where, | ||||||||
| N = number of injuries and/or illnesses | ||||||||
| EH = total hours worked by all employees during calendar year | ||||||||
| 200,000 = base for 100 full-time equivalent workers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year) | ||||||||
| 20,000,000 = base for 10,000 equivalent full-time workers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year). | ||||||||

| 3 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. | ||||||||
| 4 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. | ||||||||
| 5 Data for employers in rail transportation are provided to BLS by the Federal Railroad Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation. | ||||||||
| 6 Days-away-from-work cases include those that result in days away from work with or without job transfer or restriction. | ||||||||
