1 Incidence rates represent the number of illnesses per 10,000 full-time workers & 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).                                                                                    
2 Totals include data for industries not shown separately.
3 North American Industry Classification System -- United States, 2012.
4 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees.
5 Data too small to be displayed.
 6 Data for mining (Sector 21 in the North American Industry Classification System, 2012 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 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. 
 
NOTE: Because of rounding, components may not add to totals. Dash indicates data do not meet publication guidelines.
