| 3 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 non-metal mining industries. These data do not reflect the changes the Occupa-tional Safety and Health Administration made to its recordkeeping require- | |||||||||||||
| ments effective January 1, 2002; therefore estimates for these industries are not comparable to estimates in other industries. | |||||||||||||
| 4 Data for employers in railroad 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, data may not sum to the totals. Major classifications may include detailed classifications not shown separately. | |||||||||||||
