     1  Incidence rates represent the number of injuries per 100 full-time workers and were calculated as:
(N/EH) x 200,000 where
          N             = number of injuries                                                                  
          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 2002 Edition.
     4  Employment is expressed as an annual average and is derived primarily from the BLS-State Quarterly 
Census of Employment and Wages.
     5  Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees.
     6  Data for mining (Sector 21 in the North American Industry Classification System -- United States, 2002)
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.
     7  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.
     8  Data for employers in rail transportation are provided to BLS by the Federal Railroad Administration, 
U.S. Department of Transportation.  
     9  Data too small to be displayed.
NOTE: Because of rounding, components may not add to totals. Dash indicates data do not meet
publication guidelines.
