NOTE: Totals for major categories may include subcategories not
shown separately. Percentages may not add to totals because of
rounding.
There were 15 fatalities for which there was insufficient information
to determine a specific industry classification, though a distinction
between private and government was made for each.
Dashes indicate no data reported or data that do not meet
publication criteria.
n.e.c. means "not elsewhere classified."
Data for 2001 are preliminary; data for previous years
are final.
