This Chartbook provides a summary of fatal and nonfatal injury/illness information describing a large population of understudied workplaces and workers: the wholesale and retail trade (WRT) sector. The WRT sector consists of one of ten industry sectors formed from stakeholder meetings conducted throughout the U.S. by NIOSH that served to define the structure of the second decade of NORA. The contents of the WRT Chartbook are based on data from the mid-decade year of 2005. This year was chosen to serve as the baseline for the WRT sector, which corresponds to the launch of the second decade of NORA...
Dr. Sue Dong of CPWR - the US Center for Construction Research and Training - recently presented new research findings at the American Public Health Association conference, showing that construction workers have a significantly higher lifetime risk of premature death due to occupational injury (1/200 chance of dying from a work-related injury over a 45-year career). Given that the Occupational Safety and Health Administration considers a lifetime risk of 1 death in 1,000 workers to be significant, the findings of Dr. Dong et al. are important.

The figures for 2010/11 are, at this stage, provisional. They will be finalised in June 2012 following any necessary adjustments. This arrangement allows for the fact that the investigations of workplace fatal injuries are often complex and can take considerable time. In the course of these investigations new facts can emerge to affect judgements on issues such as whether the accident was work-related or whether the worker was based at the site of the accident. This means that initial views regarding the reportability of the accident or the industrial sector to which it should be assigned can prove...
Depuis sa création en 1998, le Département santé travail (DST) de l’Institut de veille sanitaire (InVS) s’est attaché à développer des programmes de surveillance, afin de produire régulièrement de telles données et contribuer ainsi à améliorer la connaissance des risques professionnels. Les sources de données se sont étoffées au fil du temps, et le DST a mis en place en 2009 un programme de production régulière d’indicateurs destinés à rendre compte à...
Dans son rapport intitulé «Tendances et enjeux mondiaux de la sécurité et de la santé au travail», lancé à l’occasion du XIXe Congrès mondial sur la sécurité et la santé au travail, le BIT a publié ses estimations les plus récentes sur la sécurité et la santé au travail. Selon ce rapport, le nombre global de décès causés par des accidents ou des maladies liés au travail a progressé entre 2003 et 2008. S’il est vrai que le nombre d’accidents...
Nearly the same number of workers lost their lives as a result of fatal workplace injuries in 2010 as in 2009, according to preliminary data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. A total of 4,547 fatal occupational injuries occurred in 2010, compared to the 4,551 fatalities recorded in 2009. Source : http://ehstoday.com/safety/news/bls-worker-fatality-count-holds-steady-0829/
Ce dossier présente les statistiques des accidents du travail et des maladies professionnelles publiées par la Caisse nationale de l'assurance maladie des travailleurs salariés (CNAMTS) pour l'année 2010. On retiendra une légère baisse de la fréquence des accidents et du nombre d'accidents mortels. Parallèlement, l'augmentation du nombre de maladies professionnelles s'est poursuivie. Le BTP et l'agroalimentaire sont les secteurs d'activité où les accidents sont les plus fréquents. Les accidents...
This information is the collated picture of ‘as reported' information on fatalities, including those documented in our Chief Executive's reports. It is updated on a monthly basis. It does not purport to be a formal statistical release. Subsequent investigation may determine that some are not reportable under RIDDOR1, for example deaths due to natural causes. Other deaths shown here may have been caused by gas incidents in the home. In such cases these deaths will not be counted in our statistics for workplace fatal injuries. Provisional quarterly figures for workplace fatal injuries...
L'État a souhaité se doter, au niveau national, d'une série d'indicateurs destinés à suivre l'évolution de l'état sanitaire en France. Depuis sa création en 1998, le département santé travail (DST) de l'Institut de veille sanitaire (InVS) s'est attaché à développer des programmes de surveillance, afin de produire régulièrement de telles données et contribuer ainsi à améliorer la connaissance des risques professionnels. Les sources de données...
Part 1 of this report is a summary of the fatalities occurring in the agricultural sector (comprising of farming, horticulture, forestry, fish farming and other associated land-based industries) in Great Britain (GB) during the year 1 April 2009 to 31 March 2010 which were investigated by Inspectors from the Health and Safety Executive (HSE). Data in part 1 of this report is provisional. Part 2 summarises fatal injuries notified to HSE within the agricultural sector for the ten year period 1999/2000 to 2008/2009. It highlights trends and indicates key points in fatalities involving employees, the...
Risk Factors and Recommendations NIOSH recently completed an in-depth study of commercial fishing fatalities in the United States during 2000-2009. The purpose of the study was to identify the most hazardous fisheries around the country and to describe the unique safety issues in each. For this study the US was divided into four fishing regions: Alaska, West Coast, East Coast, and the Gulf of Mexico. Alaska : http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2011-103/ West Coast : http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2011-104/ East Coast : http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2011-105/ Gulf of Mexico : http://www.cdc.gov/niosh...
A preliminary total of 4,340 fatal work injuries were recorded in the United States in 2009, down from a final count of 5,214 fatal work injuries in 2008. The 2009 total represents the smallest annual preliminary total since the Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) program was first conducted in 1992. Based on this preliminary count, the rate of fatal work injury for U.S. workers in 2009 was 3.3 per 100,000 full-time equivalent (FTE) workers, down from a final rate of 3.7 in 2008. Counts and rates are likely to increase with the release of final 2009 CFOI results in April 2011. Over the...
The release provides a provisional full-year total for 2009/10. Finalised figures for 2008/09 are also provided, as are trends over recent years. The key points from the latest release are: - The provisional figure for the number of workers fatally injured in 2009/10 is 151, and corresponds to a rate of 0.5 fatalities per 100 000 workers. - The latest data represents a statistically significant decrease in the rate of fatal injury compared to previous years. - It reinforces an underlying downward trend in the rate of fatal injuries. - The figure of 151 for the latest year is 31% lower than the...
Premières exploitations de données disponibles La conduite suicidaire est un processus complexe et multifactoriel. S'il est aujourd'hui difficile de comptabiliser le nombre exact de suicides en lien avec le travail, il existe néanmoins certaines données permettant d'approcher cette problématique. Cette étude a pour objectif de décrire la mortalité par suicide et son évolution au cours du temps dans la population des salariés (hommes) selon les secteurs d'activité auxquels ils appartiennent. La description...
From 1998-2007, younger workers experienced approximately twice as many nonfatal occupational injuries as older workers, and employers must make changes in workplace environments and practices to protect this population, according to the April 23 Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report. The report, conducted by National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), pointed out that younger workers in the United States represent 14 percent of the labor force “and face high risk of injury while on the job.” Source : http://ehstoday.com/safety/news/mmwr-younger-workers-experience...
