     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 rail 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 and data exclusion
of nonclassifiable responses, data may not sum to the totals.
