Norwood, Commissioner January 1980 Bulletin 2047 f Gli‘ LU-AQ For sale by the Superintendent of Documents, U.S. Government Printing Office Washington, D.C. 20402 Stock Number 029-001-02432-1 * 90*17 Preface Data for this publication were collected in accor dance with the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970. The estimates gauge the occur rence of injuries and illnesses resulting from working conditions over which the Occupational Safety and Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor, the Mine Safety and Health Administration of the U.S. Department of Labor, and the Federal Railroad Administration of the U.S. Department of Transportation exercise statutory authority. The estimates represent the injury and illness ex perience of employers in private sector establishments for the years 1973-77. For each survey, report forms were mailed to employers in the year following the reference year of the survey. The 1977 survey sample was about 85,000 below the number sampled in the 1976 survey. The sample was modified downward in response to the Office of Management and Budget and the Commission on Federal Paperwork’s proposal to reduce the amount of paperwork required of the employer. The number of sample units selected for the construction and manufacturing industries was not reduced and, therefore, there was no loss in statistical detail for these industries. However, the reduction resulted in less detailed statistics in the other nonmanufacturing indus tries surveyed, except for some selected three-digit in dustries which have historically high incidence rates. This bulletin was prepared in the Office of Occupa tional Safety and Health Statistics, Theodore J. Golonka, Assistant Commissioner, by the staff of the Division of Periodic Surveys, under the direction of William Mead. Data were collected and tabulated in the Office of Statistical Operations with the coopera tion of the Regional Offices of the Bureau of Labor Statistics and participating State agencies identified in appendix C. State data on occupational injuries and ill nesses will be released in a separate publication.

The lowest injury and illness rate was recorded in insurance agents, brokers and service— 0.7—or on an average of 1 case for every 143 workers compared to 1 in every 3 workers in the mobile home industry. Of the 19 industries with the highest injury and illness rates, all were manufacturing industries. Injury and illness incidence rates varied according to establishment size; lower rates were experienced by workers in establishments with fewer than 50 or more than 1,000 employees (table 2). Small-sized establish ments (1 to 19 employees) had a rate about one-third that for medium-sized establishments (100 to 249 employees). The pattern of higher rates of injuries and illnesses for medium-sized establishments has re mained constant over the past several years. Table 2 also includes quartile rates. (Quartile rates are not subject to the upward bias inherent in the mean or total case rate—a few reporting units with a high in cidence of cases tend to inflate the mean rate.) The quartile data show that in at least three-fourths of the establishments in the private sector virtually no injuries and illnesses occurred during 1977. In manufacturing, one-half of the establishments had a rate of 0 .0 , and Incidence rates Occupational injuries and illnesses occurred at a rate of 9.3 per 100 full-time workers during 1977 (ta ble l ); on the average, l out of every l l workers in the private economy was injured or made ill while on the job. Or, in terms of hours of exposure on the job, l in jury or illness was recorded for every 21,500 hours worked. The estimates represent the experience of 68 million workers in over 5 million establishments in the private sector of the American economy. In addition to excluding self-employed individuals in the private sec tor, the 1977 estimates exclude farms with fewer than 11 employees. The 1977 private sector rate represents a slight in crease from the 1976 rate of 9.2—about 2 percent. The incidence rate changed little from 1976 to 1977 because the increase in the number of hours worked was just about proportionate to the increase in the num ber of injuries and illnesses. The increase in employ ment and hours worked was about the same for highrisk industries (agriculture, forestry, and fishing; min ing; construction; manufacturing; and transportation and public utilities) as for low-risk industries (wholesale and retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services). Rates for the major industry divisions ranged from 15.5 in construction to 2.0 in finance, insurance, and real estate (chart 1). Injury and illness rates for all the goods-producing industry divisions (agriculture, forestry, and fishing; mining; construction; and manufacturing) and only one service-producing indus try (transportation and public utilities) were higher than the average for the private sector. Manufacturing, which employs nearly one-third of the total private sec tor work force, had a rate of 13.1. Rates decreased in three of the eight industry divisions from 1976 to 1977, increased in four divisions, and stayed the same for one division-finance, insurance, and real estate. The agriculture, forestry, and fishing industries had the greatest change—up from 1 1.0 to 11.5 injuries and ill nesses per 100 full-time workers. The mobile home industry had the highest injury and illness incidence rate, 35.7 per 100 full-time workers Text table 1.

See appendix D. NOTE: Dashes indicate data that do not meet publication guidelines, n.e.c. = not elsewhere classified. 1 According to another measure of lost worktime—the number of injuries and illnesses involving 15 or more days away from work—the mining division continued to experience the most severe lost workday cases. In mining, 36 percent of the days-away-from-work cases lasted 15 days or longer (text table 2). Although the number of days-away-from-work cases increased in all industry divisions, the percentage of these cases involv ing 15 or more days decreased in 6 of the 8 industry divisions. Among the 10 industries with the highest injury and illness rate of lost workdays, the average proportion of lost workday cases involving 15 or more days away from work was 35 percent. The percentage of daysaway-from-work cases involving 15 days or more ranged from 64 percent in water transportation services to 24 percent in sanitary services (chart 6 ). Although the greatest proportion of lost workday cases occurred in middle-sized establishments, injuries and illnesses resulting in 15 or more days away from work were most common in the smallest and largest establishments (chart 7). In 1977 there were 36.1 million injuries and ill nesses involving lost worktime in the private sector— up by 7 percent since 1976. Fifty percent of the increase in lost workdays can be attributed to the manufacturing industries—approximately 1.1 million days. The num ber of lost workdays increased in six industry divisions and decreased in the finance, insurance, and real estate and services industries. one-fourth had a rate greater than or equal to 16.6. In construction, the industry division with the highest overall rate, about three-fourths of the establishments had a rate less than or equal to 8 .6 . Chart 2 shows the mean and the quartile rates for several industries with the highest total case rates. Chart 3 indicates that by incidence rate interval, the average proportion of establishments in which virtually no injuries or illnesses occurred varied inversely with establishment size, while the average proportion of establishments with rates between 0.1 and 9.9 varied directly with establishment size. Middle-sized establishments had the largest proportion of firms with injury and illness incidence rates of 10.0 and above. Number of injuries and illnesses There were nearly 5.5 million job-related injuries and illnesses in 1977—an increase of about 277,000 or nearly 6 percent from the previous year (table 3). Manufacturing industries accounted for a much larger percentage of injuries and illnesses than of employ ment. Manufacturing and wholesale and retail trade in dustries accounted for about two-thirds of all private sector injuries and illnesses. Lost workday injuries and illnesses Lost workday injuries and illnesses occurred at a rate of 3.8 per 100 full-time workers in 1977—up nearly 9 percent from 1976. Among industry divisions, the rates ranged from 0.8 in finance, insurance, and real estate to 6.0 in mining. The logging camps and log ging contractors industry experienced the highest rate of lost workday cases among 3-digit industries (chart 4). The logging camps and logging contractors industry had a mean rate of 15.4; however, one-half of the establishments had a rate less than 0 .0 . In 1977 there were approximately 2.2 million lost workday cases in the private sector. The number of cases increased in all industry divisions. The largest in crease was in services industries, up by about 18 per cent from 1976. As in previous years, the majority of all lost workday injuries and illnesses occurred in manufacturing industries, nearly 44 percent of all lost workday injuries and illnesses. Illnesses Occupational illnesses include any abnormal condi tion or disorder, other than one resulting from an oc cupational injury, caused by exposure to environmental factors associated with employment. The incidence of occupational illnesses measured by the annual survey refers to the number of new illness cases occurring dur ing a year, and does not measure continuing conditions of illness reported in previous surveys. Cases are recorded only in the year in which they are diagnosed and recognized as work related. Text table 2. Lost workday injuries and illnesses with 15 or more days away from work as a percent of days away from work cases, by industry division, United States, 1976 and 1977 Lost workdays due to injuries and illnesses The 1977 lost workdays incidence rate increased slightly—from 60.5 in 1976 to 61.5 in 1977. The rates increased in 5 of the 8 industry divisions. The rates for the agriculture, forestry, and fishing; finance, in surance, and real estate; and services industries decreased by 3, 10, and 8 percent respectively. Among 3-digit industries, water transportation services ex perienced the highest rate of lost workdays (chart 5.) The water transportation services rate of 473.0 injury and illness lost workdays was more than 7 times the rate of the private sector.

Skin diseases and disorders continued to account for about 4 of every 10 illnesses recorded, largely because they were more readily observable than other illnesses (chart 8 ). Disorders associated with repeated trauma caused the greatest loss of worktime. On the other hand, dust diseases of the lungs had the highest average number of lost workdays per lost workday case and the smallest proportion of illnesses involving lost worktime (table 7). The recording and reporting of illnesses continue to present some measurement problems since employers (and even doctors) are often unable to recognize some illnesses as being work related. The annual survey in cludes data on only current and visible illnesses of workers; it does not include data on illnesses which might surface later. To the extent that occupational ill nesses are unrecognized and therefore, unreported, the survey estimates understate their occurrence. Incidence rates During 1977, the incidence rate of occupational ill nesses was 0.3 cases per 100 full-time workers, or about 3 cases per 1,000 employees. Illness rates ranged from 0.6 cases per 1,000 employees in the finance, insurance, and real estate division to 7.4 cases per 1,000 in agriculture, forestry, and fishing (table 4). Manufactur ing industries had the next highest illness rate—5.1 cases per 1,000 employees. Of all occupational illnesses, skin diseases and dis orders continued to be the most frequently recorded, with a rate of 1.2 cases per 1,000 full-time workers in 1977 (table 5); leather tanning and finishing had the highest rate—19.5 cases per 1,000 full-time workers (text table 3). Dust diseases of the lungs were the least recorded occupational illness, with a rate of 3.5 cases per 100,000 full-time workers. Injuries Occupational injuries included injuries caused by work accidents or from exposure involving a single in cident in the work environment. These were recorded if they resulted in death, worktime lost, medical treat ment other than minor first aid, loss of consciousness, restriction of work or motion, transfer to another job, or termination of employment. Incidence rates Occupational injuries occurred at a rate of 9.0 recorded cases per 100 full-time workers during 1977 (table 8 ); on the average, an injury occurred to 1 out of every 12 workers in the private sector. About 40 per cent of the recorded cases were serious enough to re quire the injured employee to be restricted in work ac tivity or to take days off from work. Rates ranged from 15.2 in construction to 1.9 in finance, insurance, and real estate. The 1977 injury rate represented a slight increase— about 1 percent—from the rate of 8.9 in 1976 (chart 9). Number of illnesses Occupational illnesses continued to account for a relatively small proportion of total injury and illness cases—about 3 percent. Occupational illnesses ac counted for approximately 162,000 cases in 1977— down about 3 percent from 1976. The number of ill nesses decreased in six out of the eight industry divi sions. Manufacturing industries had a large proportion of illness cases in relation to employment—nearly 60 percent of all illnesses and less than 30 percent of all employment. In addition, the number of workdays lost due to illness decreased—the number of days lost dropped by nearly 590,000, or 40 percent from 1976. The number of days lost dropped in five of the eight in dustry divisions. Firms engaged in transportation and public utilities had the greatest proportion of illness cases resulting in lost worktime (44 percent); wholesale and retail trade industries had the least (around 30 per cent). While manufacturing industries experienced the largest number of illness-related cases, among major groups the food and kindred products industry ex perienced the largest number of illnesses among 2 -digit industries (table 6 ). Nearly 8 percent of the total num ber of illnesses occurred in the food and kindred prod ucts industry—approximately 12,700 cases. Of these, nearly 5,500 involved lost worktime. Although the food and kindred products industries experienced the largest number of lost workday illnesses, the building Text table 3.

Dashes indicate that no industry groups were in this category. from 10.6 to 9.0 injuries per 100 full-time workers (text table 5). This decrease occurred primarily in the less serious cases—those involving no loss of worktime— which dropped by nearly 27 percent. However, the rate for lost workday injuries rose 12 percent; the severity of injuries as measured by the lost workday incidence rate also increased by 17 percent, from 51.2 days lost per 100 full-time workers to 60.0 (chart 10). This increase was primarily in cases involving lost worktime, which rose from a rate of 3.4 to 3.7. Changes in overall rates ranged from an increase of about 5 per cent in agriculture, forestry, and fishing to a decrease of l percent in mining and transportation and public utilities. Four industry divisions registered increases, two divisions registered decreases, and two had no change. The rate for the service-producing industries (transportation and public utilities; wholesale and retail trade; finance, insurance, and real estate; and services) rose 3 percent from 1976 to 1977—6.3 to 6.5. This increase was attributable to the rise in rates in the trade and services industries. The rate for the goodsproducing industries (agriculture, forestry, and fishing; mining; construction; and manufacturing) also rose from 1976 to 1977, but not as much—from l 2.8 to l 2.9 or by l percent. The overall injury rate for manufacturing industries, the largest industry division, did not change between 1976 and 1977. The rates for ten major industry groups in manufacturing decreased from 1976 to 1977, seven increased, and three did not change. Changes in rates ranged from a decrease of 9 percent in tobacco manufactures to an increase of around 5 percent in stone, clay, and glass products. Over 80 percent of the manufacturing industries which had changes in rates had changes of less than 5 percent. Lumber and wood products continued to have the highest injury rate— 22 .0 ; apparel and other textile products and instru ments and related products had the lowest—6.5. Nearly 60 percent of the 36 industry groups ex periencing increases in overall rates, had increases of less than 6 percent (text table 4). Increases ranged from 6 to 11 percent for approximately 40 percent of the in dustry groups based on lost workday injury rates. The majority of the industry groups that recorded decreases in both total case rates and lost workday cases had decreases of less than 6 percent. Incidence rates by establishment size In the total private sector, lower injury rates were experienced by workers in establishments with fewer than 20 or with 2,500 or more employees (chart 1 1). Establishments with 50 to 1,000 employees ex perienced higher injury rates in 1977, with the highest rate occurring in those with 100 to 249 employees. Rates for mining, construction, and transportation and public utilities were highest in establishments with 50 to 99 employees (table 9). Injury rates in agriculture, forestry, and fishing generally rose with establishment size. Between 1976 and 1977, incidence rates increased in four employment-size groups, decreased in the largest establishments ( 1,000 or more employees) and re mained the same in firms with 1 to 19 employees and 500 to 999 employees.

Total injuries Lost workday injuries 4 Number of injuries Worktime Lost During 1977, private sector workers experienced nearly 5.3 million work-related injuries. About 3.1 million or 59 percent did not involve lost worktime. The proportion of injuries involving either lost work days or fatalities rose 2 percentage points between 1976 and 1977 from 39 percent to 41 percent. The ratio in 1977 ranged between 40 and 56 percent of total injuries in 5 of the 8 industry divisions. Only in construction, manufacturing, and wholesale and retail trade was the ratio less than 40 percent. Nearly 45 percent of all injuries occurred in manufacturing, which employed about 30 percent of all employees in the private sector. On the other hand, the finance, insurance, and real estate and services indus tries recorded 13 percent of the in juries while account ing for about the same number of workers as manufac turing. The 1977 private sector level of nearly 5.3 million injuries represents an increase of 6 percent from the 5.0 million injuries recorded for 1976. The increase of about 300,000 cases was nearly proportionate to the rise in hours worked between the 2 years. The number of injuries for 1977 was about a half million less than the 1973 estimate. This reduction came in a period when the work force covered by the statistics rose by nearly 4 million to a total of 67.9 million in 1977. Two measures are currently used as estimates of worktime lost: 1) Lost workday cases, which primarily measure the occurrence of injuries, and 2 ) days lost, which indicate the severity of the cases. Lost worktime includes both days away from work and days o f restricted work activity. Lost workday cases involving days away from work in clude those cases which result in days away from work, or a combination of days away from work and days of restricted work activity. Lost workday cases involving restricted work activity are cases resulting in restricted work activity only—the employee reported to work but could not perform all the duties of the job. Lost workday injury cases Incidence rates. Lost workday injuries occurred at a rate of 3.7 per 100 full-time workers during 1977—up 9 percent from the previous year (table 10). The private sector lost workday injury rates have varied little since 1973, when the rate was 3.4. The rate for injury cases involving days away from work was 3.5, while the rate for cases involving restricted work activity was only 0. 2. Total lost workday injury rates ranged from 5.9 in mining industries to 0.8 in finance, insurance, and real estate. The greatest percentage change occurred in the services industries—up nearly 16 percent from 1976. Special product sawmills and logging camps and logging contractors ranked first and second among the 20 industries with the highest lost workday injury rates (text table 6 ). These two industries were also among the Fatalities The fatality data which follow cover only employers with 11 or more employees because in 1977 the survey sample was reduced by 85,000. The reduction, which affects primarily employers with fewer than 1 1 employees, was in response to the Presidential directive on reduction of the paperwork burden in survey opera tions. The sample reduction results in larger sampling errors in the fatality data (statistically rare occur rences), making year-to-year comparisons for this group of small employers of questionable reliability. In 1977, about 4,760 fatalities were estimated to be work related for employers with 1 1 or more employees. The comparable figure in the previous year was 3,940, thus, the estimate for 1977 represents an increase of ap proximately 20 percent. For employers with 1 1 or more employees, the estimated numbers of fatalities in 1975, 1974, and 1973 were 4,570, 4,970, and 5,340, respectively. The average number of fatalities for employers with 10 or fewer employees for 1973-77 was 800. A figure for fatalities for all classes of employees can be derived by adding the average of 800 fatalities to the estimate for employers with 1 1 or more employees. Text table 6.

Injuries involving days away from work and days of restricted work activity only, as a percent of total lost workday injuries, by employment size, United States, 1977______________ group of industries with the highest overall injury and illness incidence rates. Fourteen of the industries with the highest lost workday injury rates also ranked among the 19 industries with the highest total case rates. Lost workday injury incidence rates have paralleled the variation in total case rates by employment-size group over the past several years. Employers with fewer than 50 or more than 1,000 workers generally ex perienced the highest injury rates. Number o f lost workday injury cases. The 1977 survey in dicated an increase in the number of lost workday in juries from approximately 1.9 million in 1976 to around 2.1 million in 1977—an increase of 1 1 percent. Among industry divisions the largest changes took place in services—up by 22 percent—and construc tion—up by 17 percent (chart 10). Manufacturing in dustries accounted for nearly 43 percent of the total number of lost workday cases and about 38 percent of the increase in the number of cases in 1977. Approximately 95 percent of all lost worktime in juries involved at least 1 full day away from work. The remaining 5 percent involved restricted work activity only. The proportion of cases involving days of restricted work activity only ranged from slightly more than 1 percent in services to nearly 8 percent in manufacturing (chart 11). Manufacturing accounted for over 40 percent of all private sector injuries involv ing days away from work and nearly 70 percent of all injuries involving restricted work activity only (text ta ble 7). Wholesale and retail trade, the industry with the second highest percentage of injuries causing days away from work, had less than 8 percent of the cases involv ing only restricted work activity. The proportion of lost worktime injuries involving only restricted work ac tivity generally varied directly with establishment size, accounting for around 2 percent of all lost worktime cases in the 1 to 19 employee-size group, and about 25 Industry division Injuries involving days of restricted work activity only Private s e c to r............................................ 100.0 100.0 M a nufacturing............................................

Lost workdays due to injuries Incidence rates. The incidence rate of lost workdays provides an indication of the severity of injuries by relating the number of days lost to a common base of exposure on the job. During 1977, the incidence rate of lost workdays increased 4 percent over the previous year—from 57.8 to 60.0 days lost per 100 full-time workers. The rates ranged from 10.2 in finance, in surance, and real estate to l 28.3 in mining. Two indus try divisions indicated a decrease in lost workday rates—agriculture, forestry, and fishing by 3 percent and finance, insurance, and real estate by 7 percent. Sixty percent of the 2-digit SIC industries ex perienced increases in the incidence rate of lost work days. In manufacturing, 13 out of the 20 industries showed increases. Among 3-digit industries, water transportation services registered the highest incidence rate of lost workdays; the rate of 470.7 lost workdays in 1977 was 8 times the rate of the private sector (chart 14). Number o f lost workdays. During 1977, approximately Text table 7. Percent distribution of injuries involving days away from work and days of restricted work activity only, by industry division, United States, 1977 Injuries involving days away from work Injuries involving days of re stricted work activity only Total lost workday injuries 35.2 million workdays were lost due to job-related in juries. This represents the loss of a full year’s work for about 140,000 workers and a 8 percent increase from the 32.5 million workdays lost in 1976. The number of workdays lost increased in all industry divisions, with the exception of finance, insurance, and real estate, which declined 2 percent. The mining industry had the greatest percentage change—up 20 percent. There was an average of 16 lost workdays per lost workday injury for the private sector in 1977. This average measures the length of time (not counting the day of injury) the employee was away from work or could not perform all regularly assigned duties because of a job-related injury. Average days lost ranged from 6 22 in mining industries to 13 in finance, insurance, and real estate. Comparison with time lost from work stoppages During 1977, the percent of total worktime lost in the private sector from job-related injuries and ill nesses was higher than the percent lost due to work stoppages. Work stoppage data reflect the number of workdays employees did not work because of a dispute between labor and management which resulted in a strike or lockout. Work-related injuries and illnesses accounted for more days lost than work stoppages in alternate years since 1973 (see text table 9). Text table 9.

However, those firms that did have programs employed nearly 70 percent of the total private sector work force. In three major industry groups—agriculture, forestry, and fishing; manufacturing; and transportation and public utilities—more than 50 percent of the employers maintained some form of safety program. About 4 out of 5 employees in manufacturing and transportation and public utilities were covered. The smallest percent age of employees provided safety and health programs were employed in finance, insurance, and real estate where only l out of 3 employees worked where safety training was available. The incidence rate of injuries and illnesses in 1977 was higher for those establish ments which had safety and health programs than for those that did not provide them— l l.l versus 5.1 cases per 100 full-time workers (chart 15). By employment size, both groups—those with no safety program and those with an established one—ex hibited the same pattern in incidence rates (text table 10). The lowest rates occurred in both the smallest and largest units while the highest rates were in the middle employment level, the 100 to 249 employee group. Over 40 percent of the employment in establishments not providing safety training was reported in units hav ing fewer than 20 workers. On the other hand, about two-thirds of the employees in firms providing safety programs worked in units of 100 or more people. There was an inverse relationship between the oc currence of occupational injuries and illnesses and the degree of physical medical examinations provided by employers in the industry as whole. Although approx imately 56 percent of all employees worked in units not providing any type of medical examination, the rate of occurrence of injuries and illnesses, 8 .0 , was much lower for them than for the group working for employers providing such examinations, l l .0 . By industry division, almost 80 percent of the employees in transportation and public utilities were provided medical exams, yet the injury and illness rate for this group, 9.8, exceeded the rate of 7.7 for the re•^mainder of the industry. Only in manufacturing, where employers provided exams to 68 percent of their employees, was the rate of occurrence of injuries and illnesses lower for establishments providing medical exams. The larger the firm, the more likely that medical ex aminations will be provided to the employees. In the smallest size group (l to 19 employees), only 10 per cent of the employees worked for companies providing medical examinations, while in establishments which employed 2,500 workers or more, 94 percent were pro vided coverage. In establishments having 250 people or more, 80 percent of the workers were provided with some type of employer-furnished medical examination. Only in units with l ,000 to 2,499 workers was the inci dence rate less for firms which provided medical ex aminations than for those which did not. Among the 10 industries with the highest injury and illness incidence rates and the highest incidence rates of lost workdays, two-thirds of the employees worked in establishments providing medical examinations, and virtually all employees were provided safety and health training programs (text table l l ). Incidence rates were generally higher in establishments providing these services. Text table 10.

Because of rounding, the difference between the total and the sum of the rates for lost workday cases and nonfatal cases without lost workdays do not reflect the fatality rate. Standard Industrial Classification Manual. 1972 Edition. 6/ _3/ Annual average employment for nonagricultural industries i9 based on the employment and earnings survey conducted by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, in cooperation with the State agencies. The employment estimate for the services division is adjusted to exclude the employment for (a) nonfarm portion of agricultural services and (b) nonclasslflable establishments. Annual average employment for the Agriculture, forestry, and fishing division is a composite of data from State unemployment insurance programs, and estimates of hired-farm workers engaged in agricultural production provided by the U.S. Depart ment of Agriculture. The agricultural production employment estimate as originally published by the Department of Agriculture is adjusted to exclude employment on farms with fewer than 11 employees. Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. 2J 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 rail road transportation (SIC 40) were provided by the Mine Safety and Health Administration, U.S. Department of Labor, and by the Federal Railroad Admin istration, U.S. Department of Transportation. NOTE: SOURCE: k j The incidence rates represent the number of injuries and ill nesses or lost workdays per 100 full-time workers and were calculated as: (N/EH) X 200,000, where N EH ■ number of injuries and Illnesses or lost workdays ■ 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). 1977 Lost workdays 14,972.0 Hotels and other lodging places.... ........

United States, 1977—Continued shown separately. 2 Standard Industrial Classification Manual. 1972 Edition. J The incidence rates represent the number of injuries and illnesses per 100 full-time workers. 4 The mean incidence rate is calculated as: (N/EH) X 200,000, where N = number of injuries and illnesses EH = total hours worked by all employees during the calendar year 200,000 = base for 100 full-time equivalent workers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year). The middle range (interquartile) is defined by 2 measures; a fourth of the establish- 58 higher than or equal to the third quartile rate. 5 Data conforming to the O SHA 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, U.S. Department of Labor, and by the Federal Railroad Administration. U.S. Department of Transportation. 6 Indicates that quartile rates were not derived because fewer than 25 establishment reports were included in the industry employment-size group. n.e.c. = not elsewhere classified.

Scope of Survey and Technical Notes Federal-State cooperative program and the data had to meet the needs of participating State agencies, the universe was then stratified by State prior to sample selection. An optimum allocation was achieved by dis tributing the sample to each size group proportionate to the total employment and the- variation among size groups. The sampling ratios for the various employ ment-size groups ranged from all units above a certain size class selected with certainty through declining pro portions in each smaller employment-size group. The certainty strata were usually greater than 100 employees, although these may have ranged downward in employment size depending upon the total employ ment in the industry. Sample sizes were then adjusted to produce integral sample ratios. The ratios determined for each industry-employment-size group were used to select a sample within a State-industry-employmentsize group estimating cell. A segment of each State sam ple was selected for generating national estimates. States may choose to expand the sample to concentrate on a particular industry. Scope of survey The occupational injury and illness data reported through the annual survey were based on the records which employers in the following private industries maintain under the Occupational Safety and Health Act: Agriculture, forestry, and fishing, SIC 01 -09; oil and gas extraction, SIC 13; construction, SIC 15-17; manufacturing, SIC 20-39; transportation and public utilities, SIC 41-42 and 44-49; 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 were self-employed individuals; far mers with fewer than 11 employees; employers regu lated by other Federal safety and health laws; and Federal, State, and local government agencies. Data conforming to definitions of recordable oc cupational injuries and illnesses for coal, metal, and nonmetal mining, and railroad transportation were provided by the Mine Safety and Health Administra tion, U.S. Department of Labor, and the Federal Railroad A dministration, U.S. Department of Transportation. In a separate reporting system, agen cies of the Federal Government file reports on occupa tional injuries and illnesses with the Secretary of Labor comparable with those of private industry. At this time, State and local government agencies are not repre sented in the national sample. About 185,000 national sample units were selected nationwide to participate in the 1977 survey; of these about 26,000 were ineligible to be included in the final response count. Replies were received from approx imately 94 percent of the eligible sample units—or about 150,000. The 1977 estimates were based on reports from about 68,000 establishments in manufac turing industries and 82,000 in nonmanufacturing in dustries. Estimating procedures Weighting. Weights were determined by the inverse of the sampling ratios for the size class from which the unit was selected. Using a weighting procedure, sample units were made to represent all units in their size class for a particular industry. Each sample member was assigned a State weight and, if it was to be used to pro duce national estimates, a national weight as well. The national and State weights were often different since the sample unit may have represented a different propor tion of the universe in each case. Weights of responding units were adjusted in each sampling cell to account for the nonresponse in that cell. Units were then shifted into the estimating cell determined by industry classification and reported employment. Each unit car ries into the estimating cell the weight of its sampling cell, which was adjusted for nonresponse. Data for each unit were multiplied by the appropriate nonresponse adjusted weight. The products were then aggregated to obtain totals for the estimating cell. Sample design The sample was selected to represent private indus tries in the States and territories. The survey results were used to produce estimates of the number of occur rences and incidence rates of occupational injuries and illnesses by industry and employment size for the Na tion as a whole. The universe frame was stratified by industry and by employment-size group. Because the survey is a Benchmarking. Data were further adjusted to reflect the actual employment in an industry during the survey year. Since the universe file which provides the sample 73 mates would have been in the range of 2 standard er rors above and below the estimated value. Because of the complex two-stage ratio estimation procedure, most relative errors were computed using a simplified form of the variance-estimation formulas. The more complex variance formulas were used for a few of the items, resulting in some higher estimates and some lower estimates of relative errors. The relative er rors approximate the sampling errors of the incidence rates. As an example of the use of the relative errors, general building construction (SIC 15) has an esti mated incidence rate for total cases of 15.0 per 100 full-time workers and a relative error of 2 percent. The chances are 2 out of 3 that a complete census would produce a rate between 15.3 and 14.7, and the chances are 19 out of 20 that the rate produced from a complete count would be between 15.6 and 14.4. For the number of job-related injuries and illnesses resulting in lost workdays, the published rate is 5.7 per 100 full-time workers with a 4-percent relative error. The chances are 2 out of 3 that a census would show a rate between 5.9 and 5.5 and 19 out of 20 that the rate could be be tween 6.2 and 5.2. Similarly, the number of occupa tional injuries and illnesses estimated for SIC 15 was 136,800 with a relative error of 2 percent. Thus, the chances are 2 out of 3 that a census would show' a num ber between approximately 139,500 and 134,100 and 19 out of 20 that the number would be within a range of approximately 142,300 and 131,300. frame was not current to the reference year of the survey, it was necessary to benchmark the data to reflect current employment levels. The benchmarking procedure related the employ ment estimate used in sampling to the actual employ ment for the reference year of the survey. The ratio of the actual employment to the weighted employment estimate is called the benchmark factor. The aggre gated weighted nonresponse-adjusted characteristics of the estimating cell were multipled by the benchmark factor so that the cell became more representative of the universe during the survey reference year. Federal-State cooperation Under grant arrangements with State agencies, re spondents completed a single reporting form which was used to generate both national and State estimates. This eliminated duplicate reporting and, together with the use of identical techniques at the national, and State levels, ensured maximum comparability of estimates. Rounding of published estimates The original tabulations on which data of the num ber of recorded fatalities and nonfatal injuries and il lnesses were based showed all estimates to the nearest whole unit. Estimates of the numbers of injuries and il lnesses were rounded to the nearest thousand. Derived percents were computed after the estimates were rounded. Industrial classification Publication guidelines Reporting units were classified into industries by their principal product or activity. The data were tabulated according to the 1972 edition of the Standard Industrial Classification Manual. The BLS tabulating system generates occupational injury and illness estimates for several 2-, 3-, and 4digit SIC industry levels. This bulletin, however, ex cludes estimates for certain industries if one of the following situations occurred: Reliability of estimates Estimates based on a sample may differ from figures that would have been obtained had a complete census of establishments been possible using the same schedules or procedures. As in any survey, the results are subject to errors of response and reporting, as well as sampling variability. Errors of response and report ing are minimized through comprehensive edit pro cedures and follow-up contacts with employers. The relative error is a measure of sampling variability—variations which occur by chance because only a sample of the establishments is in the survey. In conjunction with the estimates, the relative standard er ror serves to define the confidence intervals or ranges that would include the comparable complete coverage value. The chances are about 2 out of 3 that the esti mate 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 esti 1. Estimates for the industry level were based on reports from fewer than three companies. Moreover, if three or more companies reported data for the indus try, the employment of one firm could not constitute 50 percent or more of the employment for the industry, or two companies combined could not equal or exceed 75 percent of the industry employment. 2. 1977 annual average employment for the indus try was less than 10,000. However, industries with an nual average employment of less than 10,000 were published if the majority of the employment for an in dustry was reported in the survey. 3. Relative standard error for lost workday cases at 1 standard deviation was more than 15 percent for the industry level in manufacturing and 20 percent in non manufacturing. 4. Benchmark factor for the industry level was less than 0.90 or greater than 1.49. 74 Data for an unpublished industry were included in the total shown for the broader industry level of which it is a part. In addition to deleting industries, selected items of data were suppressed for publishable industries when the relative standard error for the estimate was equal to or exceeded 60 percent. 75 Table A-1.

For example, if you had the follow ing m onthly employment— Jan.-10; Feb.-10; Mar.-10; Apr.-5; May-5; June-5; July-5; Aug.-O; Sept.-O; Oct.-O; Nov.-5; Dec.-5— you would sum the number of employees fo r each monthly pay period (in this case. 60) and then divide that total by 12 (the number of pay periods during the year) to derive an annual average employment of 5. SURVEY REPORTING REGULATIONS T itle 29, Part 1904.20-22 o f the Code o f Federal Regulations requires th a t: each e m plo yer shall return the com pleted survey fo rm , OSHA No. 103, w ith in 3 weeks o f receipt in accordance w ith the instructions shown below.

State Agencies Participating in the 1977 Survey The 1977 survey was conducted in cooperation with agencies in 41 States, the District of Columbia, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands which received operating grants. These agen cies shared half the cost with the Federal Government in collecting, processing, and analyzing the survey data. Also, national data for 5 of the 9 States which did not have operational grants were collected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and for the other 4—New Jersey, New York, Ohio, and Texas by State agencies under contract. Following are the State agencies which received operating grants to participate in the annual survey: Maryland Department of Licensing and Regulation Massachusetts Department of Labor and Industries Michigan Department of Labor Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry Mississippi State Board of Health Missouri Department of Labor and Industrial Rela tions Montana Department of Labor and Industry Nebraska Workers’ Compensation Court Nevada Department of Industrial Safety New Mexico Health and Environment Department North Carolina Department of Labor Oregon Workers’ Compensation Department Pennsylvania Department of Labor and Industry Puerto Rico Department of Labor and Human Resources Rhode Island Department of Labor Alabama Department of Labor Alaska Department of Labor American Samoa Department of Manpower Resources Arizona Industrial Commission Arkansas Department of Labor South Carolina Department of Labor South Dakota Department of Health Tennessee Department of Labor Utah Industrial Commission Vermont Department of Labor and Industry California Department of Industrial Relations Colorado Department of Labor and Employment Connecticut Department of Labor Delaware Department of Labor District of Columbia Department of Labor Florida Department of Labor and Employment Security Guam Department of Labor Hawaii Department of Labor and Industrial Relations Idaho Industrial Commission Virgin Islands Department of Labor Virginia Department of Labor and Industry Washington Department of Labor and Industries West Virginia Department of Labor Wisconsin Department of Industry, Labor and Human Relations Wyoming Department of Labor and Statistics Indiana Division of Labor Iowa Bureau of Labor Kansas Department of Health and Environment Kentucky Department of Labor Louisiana Department of Labor Maine Department of Manpower Affairs Requests for more detailed data by industry for the States shown in this publication can be obtained directly from these agencies or by contacting the Bureau of Labor Statistics' Regional Office which serv ices your area.

Glossary of Terms Average lost workdays per lost workday case The number of workdays lost divided by the number of lost workday cases. Cooperative program A program jointly conducted by the States and the Federal Government to collect occupational injury and illness statistics. Employment-size group A grouping of establishments with a specified range of employment. I Mean. Number of injuries and/or illnesses, or lost workdays experienced by 100 full-time workers. The rate is calculated as: Incidence rate N x 200,000 where EH* N = number of occupational 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 workers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year). Median. Incidence rate is the middle measure in the dis tribution—one-half of the establishments have an inci dence rate more than and half less than the median rate. Middle range. (Interquartile) is defined by two measures—one-fourth of the establishments have a rate less than the first quartile and one-fourth a rate more than the third quartile rate. Cases which involve days away from work, or days of restricted work activity, or both. Lost workday cases (1) Lost workday cases involving days away from work Those cases which result in days away from work, or a combination of days away from work and days of restricted work activity.
