     1  Days-away-from-work cases include those that result in days away from work with or without job transfer 
or restriction.                                                                                                                   
     2  Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees.                                                                            
     3  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.
     4  Data for employers in railroad transportation are provided to BLS by the Federal Railroad 
Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation.  
     NOTE: Dashes indicate data that are not available. Because of rounding, data may not sum 
to the totals. Major classifications may include detailed classifications not shown separately.
     n.e.c. = not elsewhere classified.
