The Occupational Safety and Health Statistics comprise two programs that provide annual counts and incidence rates of both nonfatal and fatal work-related injuries and illnesses.

The Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (SOII) collects data on nonfatal injuries and illnesses that private industry employers report based on the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) “Log of Work- Related Injuries and Illnesses.”

The Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) collects data on work- related fatalities. CFOI uses multiple sources, such as news reports, death certificates, police reports, and workers’ compensation reports to identify, verify, and describe work-related fatalities.

Below are examples of data that is available for 2004-2006:

OSH data 2004
OSH data 2005

	Nonfatal injury and illness data are derived from the Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (SOII).
	The data can be used to understand the risks associated with particular occupations and industries.
