| 1 Incidence rates represent the number of injuries and illnesses per 10,000 full-time workers and were | |||||||||||||||||
| calculated as: (N/EH) x 20,000,000 where | |||||||||||||||||
| N = number of injuries and illnesses | |||||||||||||||||
| EH = total hours worked by all employees during calendar year | |||||||||||||||||
| 20,000,000 = base for 10,000 equivalent full-time workers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year). | |||||||||||||||||
| 2 Days-away-from-work cases include those that result in days away from work with or without job transfer or restriction. | |||||||||||||||||
| 3 Based on the Occupational Injury and Illness Classification System 2.01 developed by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. | |||||||||||||||||
