In the first quarter of fiscal year 2005, more than 53,800 occupational
injuries and illnesses involving civilian federal employees occurred. Thirty-four
of these injuries resulted in fatalities. Beyond the human implications
of these statistics, this takes its toll on the American taxpayer in the
form of the chargeback billings of federal agencies arising from the injuries

compensation billings for all federal employees totaled more than $2 billion.

should provide for their employees. The course also looks at the documentation
