- indicates no data reported or data that do not meet BLS publication guidelines.

Note:  BLS stopped using the 'dust diseases of the lung' category in 2001. Since 2002, BLS has been aggregating these diseases with other occupational lung diseases in a new 'respiratory conditions' category for its annual surveys. The sum of industries may not equal the total due to rounding. See appendices for source description.
