     1  Days-away-from-work cases include those that result in days away from work with or without job transfer or restriction.
     2  Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees.                                                                            
     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 contrac-
tors are excluded from the coal, metal, and nonmetal mining industries. These data do not reflect the changes the Occupational Safety and Health Administra-tion made to its recordkeeping requirements effective January 1, 2002: therefore                                                                                                                   
estimates for these industries are not comparable to estimates in other industries.
     4  Data for employers in rail 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 and data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, data may not sum to the totals.
