1 Incidence rates represent the number of injuries and illnesses per
10,000 full-time workers and were calculated as: (N/EH) x 20,000,000
where
N
EH
Back pain and pain,
except back
= number of injuries and illnesses
= total hours worked by all employees
during the calendar year
= base for 10,000 equivalent full-time workers
(working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year).
2 Days-away-from-work cases include those which result in days away
from work with or without restricted work activity.
3 Based on the 1992 Occupational Injury and Illness Classification
System developed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
4 Data shown in columns correspond to the following Nature codes:
Sprains, strains = 021; Fractures = 012; Cuts, punctures = 034, 037;
.2
2.2
Bruises = 043; Heat burns = 053; Chemical burns = 051; Amputations =
031; Carpal tunnel syndrome = 1241; Tendonitis = 1733; Multiple traumatic
injuries and illnesses, Total = 080-089; With fractures, burns, and other
injuries = 083, 084; With sprains and bruises = 082; Back pain and pain,
except back, Total = 0972, 0973; Back pain, hurt back only = 0972; All other
natures = all remaining codes, including 9999 (Nonclassifiable). These
codes are based on the 1992 Occupational Injury and Illness Classification
System developed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
5 Includes nonclassifiable responses.
6 Less than 0.1 case per 10,000 full-time workers.
NOTE: Dashes indicate data that are not available. Because of
rounding, data may not sum to totals.
n.e.c. = not elsewhere classified.
