| 1 Incidence rates represent the number of illnesses per 10,000 full-time workers and were calculated as: | ||||||||||||
| (N/EH) x 20,000,000 where: | ||||||||||||
| N = number of illnesses | ||||||||||||
| EH = total hours worked by all employees during the calendar 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 Manual, 2002 edition) 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 | ||||||||||||
| OSHA 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 railroad transportation are provided to BLS by the Federal Railroad | ||||||||||||
| Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation. | ||||||||||||
| 6 Data too small to be displayed. | ||||||||||||
| NOTE: Because of rounding, components may not add to totals. Dash indicates data do not meet | ||||||||||||
| publication guidelines. | ||||||||||||
