Occupational Injuries and Illnesses by Selected Characteristics
November 20, 2008
The 2007 rate of nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses
requiring days away from work was 122 per 10,000 full-time workers,
4 percent below 2006. The key measure of severity—median days away
from work—was unchanged at 7 days. The 2007 rate of musculoskeletal
disorders (MSDs) was 35 cases per 10,000 full-time workers, 9 percent
below 2006. More »
Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (Annual)
October 23, 2008
The nonfatal injury and illness incidence rate among private industry
employers in 2007 (4.2 cases per 100 workers) was at its lowest level
since 2002 when recordkeeping requirements were revised. The overall
decline was driven primarily by lower rates among all goods-producing
industry sectors.
