The definitions of occupational injuries and illnesses
and lost workdays are from Recordkeeping Require­
ments under the Occupational Safety and Health Act
o f 1970.

Lost workdays—away from work are the number of
workdays (consecutive or not) on which the employee
would have worked but could not because of occupa­
tional injury or illness.

Recordable Occupational injuries and illnesses are:
1. Occupational deaths, regardless of the time be­
tween injury and death, or the length of the illness; or
2. Nonfatal occupational illnesses; or
3. Nonfatal occupational injuries which involve one
or more of the following: Loss of consciousness, restric­
tion of work or motion, transfer to another job, or
medical treatment (other than first aid).

Lost workdays—restricted work activity are the number
of workdays (consecutive or not) on which, because of
injury or illness:
1. The employee was assigned to another job on a
temporary basis; or
2. The employee worked at a permanent job less than
full time; or
3. The employee worked at a permanently assigned
job but could not perform all duties normally connected
with it.

Occupational injury is any injury such as a cut, fracture,
sprain, amputation, etc., which results from a work ac­
cident or from exposure involving a single incident in
the work environment.

The number o f days away from work or days o f
restricted work activity does not include the day of in­
jury or onset of illness or any days on which the
employee would not have worked even though able to
work.

Occupational illness is any abnormal condition or
disorder, other than one resulting from an occupational
injury, caused by exposure to environmental factors
associated with employment. It includes acute and
chronic illnesses or disease which may be caused by in­
halation, absorption, ingestion, or direct contact.

Incidence rates represent the number of injuries and/or
illnesses or lost workdays per 100 full-time workers and
were calculated as: (N/EH) X 200,000 where:

Lost workday cases are cases which involve days away
from work, or days of restricted work activity, or both.
1. Lost workday cases involving days away from
work are those cases which result in days away from
work, or a combination of days away from work and
days of restricted work activity.
2. Lost workday cases involving restricted work ac­
tivity are those cases which result in restricted work ac­
tivity only.




N

= number of injuries and/or illnesses or lost
workdays.
EH
= total hours worked by all employees
during calendar year.
200,000 = base for 100 full-time equivalent work­
ers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks
per year).

' Totals for divisions and 2- and 3-digit SIC codes include data for industries not shown
separately.
2 S tandard In d u s tria l C la s s ific a tio n M anual, 1972 Edition, 1977 S upplem ent.
3Annual average employment for nonagricultural industries is based on the employment
and earnings survey conducted by BLS, in cooperation with State agencies. The employment
estimate for the services division is adjusted to exclude the nonfarm portion of agricultural
services and nonclassifiable establishments. Annual average employment for the
agriculture, forestry, and fishing division is a composite of data from State unemployment in­
surance programs and an average of quarterly estimates of hired-farm workers engaged in
agricultural production from the Department of Agriculture. The estimate is adjusted to ex­
clude employment on farms with fewer than 11 employees.
4 Incidence rates represent the number of injuries and illnesses or lost workdays per 100
full-time workers and were calculated as: (N/EH) X 200,000, where
N
= number of injuries and illnesses or lost workdays
EH
= total hours worked by all employees during calendar year
200,000= base for 100 full-time equivalent workers (working 40 hours per week, 50
weeks per year).

s Includes fatalities. Because of rounding, the difference between the total and the sum of
the rates for lost workday cases and nonfatal cases without lost workdays does not reflect
the fatality rate.
• Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees.
7 Data conforming to OSHA definitions for coal and lignite mining (SIC 11 and 12) and
metal and nonmetal mining (SIC 10 and 14), and for railroad transportation (SIC 40) were pro­
vided by the Mine Safety and Health Administration, Department of Labor, and by the
Federal Railroad Administration, Department of Transportation. Data for some independent
contractors who perform services or construction on mining sites are also included,
n.e.c. = not elsewhere classified,
n.a. = data not available.
NOTE: Dashes indicate that data do not meet publication guidelines.

7 Data conforming to OSHA definitions for coal and lignite mining (SIC 11 and 12) and metal
and nonmetal mining (SIC 10 and 14), and for railroad transportation (SIC 40) were provided by
the Mine Safety and Health Administration, Department of Labor, and by the Federal Railroad
Administration, Department of Transportation. Data for some independent contractors who
perform services or construction on mining sites are also included.

3 Incidence rates represent the number of lost workday injuries or lost workdays per 100 full­
time workers and were calculated as: (N/EH) X 200,000, where
N
= number of lost workday injuries or lost workdays
EH
= total hours worked by all employees during calendar year
200,000 = base for 100 full-time equivalent workers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks
per year).

NOTE: Dashes indicate that data do not meet publication guidelines, or that data were not
reported.

4 Also includes cases which involved both days away from work and days of restricted work
activity.

Appendix A. Scop© of Survey
and Technical N@t®s

Scope of survey

therefore, it requires the smallest sample size.
The salient features of the sample design are its use of
stratified random sampling with a Neyman allocation
and a ratio estimator. Characteristics used to stratify the
establishments are the Standard Industrial Classifica­
tion (SIC) code and employment. Since these
characteristics are highly correlated with an establish­
ment’s number and rate of recorded injuries and ill­
nesses, stratified sampling provides greater precision
and, thus, results in a smaller sample size. The Neyman
allocation produces the minimum sample size which will
provide an estimate with a given sampling variance. For
larger employment size classes, the allocation procedure
places all establishments of the frame in the sample; as
employment decreases, smaller and smaller proportions
of establishments are included in the sample. Certainty
strata are usually 100 employees or more. The precision
of the sample is further improved to permit a reduction
in sample size by using the ratio estimator, which uses
available auxiliary information (employment) corre­
lated with characteristics to be measured.
The sample is designed to produce data at the 2-digit
Sic industry level in agriculture, forestry, and fishing;
the 3-digit level in oil and gas extraction; construction;
transportation and public utilities; wholesale and retail
trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services;
and the 4-digit level in manufacturing.

The occupational injury and illness data reported
through the annual survey are based on records which
employers in the following industries maintain under

4 4 -4 9 ; wholesale and retail trade, sic 50-59; finance
insurance, and real estate, sic 60-67; and services, sic
70-87 and 89. Excluded from the survey are selfemployed individuals; farmers with fewer than 11
employees; employers regulated by other Federal safety
and health laws; and Federal, State, and local govern­
ment agencies.
Data conforming to definitions of recordable occupa­
tional injuries and illnesses for coal, metal, and
nonmetal mining, and railroad transportation are pro­
vided by the Mine Safety and Health Administration,
Department of Labor, and the Federal Railroad Ad­
ministration, Department of Transportation.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration
is responsible for collecting and compiling comparable
data for Federal agencies. Although State and local
government agencies are not surveyed for national
estimates, several States have legislation which enables
them to collect data for this sector.
The 1981 survey sample was composed of approx­
imately 280,000 sample units. Original and follow-up
mailings resulted in a response rate of 94 percent.

Estimating procedures

Weighting. By a weighting procedure, units in the sam­
ple are made to represent all units in their size class for a
particular industry. The inverse of the sampling ratio
for the industry/employment-size class from which the
unit was selected determines the weight. Weights of
responding employers in a sampling cell are adjusted for
the small proportion of survey forms not returned.
Respondents are then shifted into the estimating cell
determined by the employment and business activity
reported. Data for each unit are multiplied by the ap­
propriate weight and nonresponse adjustment factor.
The products are then aggregated to obtain a total for
the estimating cell.

Sample

Because the survey is a Federal-State cooperative pro­
gram and data must meet the needs of participating
State agencies, an independent sample is selected to
represent all private industries in each State and ter­
ritory. The sample size for the survey depends upon (1)
Characteristics for which estimates are needed, (2) in­
dustries for which estimates are desired, (3) char­
acteristics of the population being sampled, (4) the
target reliability of the estimates, and (5) the survey
design employed.
Of the many characteristics upon which the sample
design could be based, the total recorded case incidence
rate is used because it is one of the most important
characteristics and, importantly, the least variable;



Benchmarking. Since the universe File which provides
the sample frame is not current to the reference year of
34

the survey, data are adjusted to reflect current employ­
ment levels. In the annual survey, all estimates of totals
are adjusted by the benchmark factor at the estimating
cell level. The benchmarking procedure requires a
source of accurate employment data which can be con­
verted into annual average employment figures for
separate estimates at the cell level. Because national
estimates require industry/employment size data,
benchmark factors are calculated from both industry
level employment data and size class level employment
data. Benchmark factors are applied to the size class
“ blow up” estimates.
Federal-State cooperation

To eliminate duplicate reporting by respondents and
to insure maximum comparability of estimates, survey
respondents complete a single reporting form for na­
tional and State estimates.

Publication guidelines

Industrial classification

Reporting units are classified into industries by their
principal product or activity. The data are tabulated ac­
cording to the 1972 edition of the Standard Industrial
Classification Manual, 1977 Supplement.
Reliability of estimates

All estimates derived from a sample survey are sub­
ject to sampling and nonsampling errors. Sampling er­
rors occur because observations are made on a sample,
not on the entire population. Estimates based on dif­
ferent samples of the same size and design could differ.
Relative standard errors, which measure the sampling
error, are calculated as part of the survey’s estimation
process.
When applied to the estimates, the sampling error
defines the confidence interval or range that would in­
clude the comparable complete coverage value. The
chances are about 2 out of 3 that the estimate would
have been produced in the range of 1 standard error
above to 1 standard error below the estimated value,
and about 19 out of 20 that the estimate would have
been in the range of 2 standard errors above and below
the estimated value.
As an example of the use of relative standard errors,
the total case incidence rate for general building con­
tractors (SIC 15) is 15.1 per 100 full-time workers, with a




sampling error of 2 percent. The chances are 2 out of 3
that a complete census would produce a rate between
15.4 and 14.8, and the chances are 19 out of 20 that the
rate from a complete count would be between 15.7 and
14.5. Similarly, the number of occupational injuries and
illnesses estimated for sic 15 was 136,200 with a relative
error of 2 percent. Thus, the chances are 2 out of 3 that
a census would show a number between 138,900 and
133,500 and 19 out of 20 that the number would be
within the range of 141,600 and 130,800.
Nonsampling errors in the estimates can be attributed
to many sources, e.g., inability to obtain information
about all cases in the sample, mistakes in recording or
coding the data, definitional difficulties, etc. To
minimize nonsampling errors in the estimates, the com­
pleted forms are edited and apparent inconsistencies are
checked.

3>

The procedure generates occupational injury and ill­
ness estimates for approximately 835 sic codes. This
publication, however, excludes estimates for several in­
dustry codes if one of the following situations occurred:
1. Estimates for the industry were based on reports
from fewer than three companies. Moreover, if three or
more companies reported data for the industry, one
firm could employ not more than 50 percent of the
workers or two companies combined could employ not
more than 75 percent.
2. Annual average employment for the industry in
1981 was less than 10,000. However, estimates for an in­
dustry with an annual average employment of less than
10,000 were published if the majority of the employ­
ment was reported in the survey.
3. The relative standard error on lost workday cases
for the industry at 1 standard error was more than 15
percent in manufacturing and 20 percent in non­
manufacturing.
4. Benchmark factor for the industry was less than
0.90 or greater than 1.49.
Data for an unpublished industry were included in the
total for the broader industry level of which it is a part.
Also, selected items of data in publishable industries
were not given if the sampling error for the estimate
equaled or exceeded 60 percent.
