  1 The incidence rates represent the number of injuries and illnesses per 100 full-time workers and were 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 equivalent full-time workers                 
               (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year)
     
  2 Days-away-from-work cases include those that result in days away from work with or without job transfer or restriction.
  3 Data cover all 50 States.
  
  NOTE:  Because of rounding, components may not add to totals.
