= 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 Totals include data for industries not shown separately.
4 Standard Industrial Classification Manual, 1987 Edition.
5 Data shown in columns correspond to the following Event codes: Contact
with objects, Total = 00-09; Struck by object = 020-029; Struck against object =
010-019; Caught in or compressed or crushed = 030-049; Fall to lower level =
110-119; Fall on same level = 130-139; Slips or trips without fall = 215;
Overexertion, Total = 220-229; In lifting = 221; Repetitive motion = 230-239;
Exposure to harmful substance or environment = 30-39; Transportation
accidents = 40-49; Fires and explosions = 50-52; Assaults and violent acts,
Total = 60-63; By person = 61; All other assaults = 60, 62, and 63; All other
events = 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.
6 Includes nonclassifiable responses.
7 Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees.
8 Data conforming to OSHA definitions for mining operators in coal, metal,

and by the Federal Railroad Administration, U.S. Department of Transportation.
Independent mining contractors are excluded from the coal, metal, and
nonmetal industries.
NOTE: Dashes indicate data that are not available. Because of rounding,
data may not sum to totals.
