What section in R&S collects and disseminates statistics about work-related injuries and illnesses, and is data available on work place fatalities?
The Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Unit surveys Louisiana employers to gather data on the incidence rate of nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses. The data is available statewide at the two-, three-, and some four-digit SIC levels. Reports are also generated on the number of nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses involving days away from work by selected worker characteristics and industry division. The Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI) program surveys employers to collect statistics on fatal occupational injuries. Available reports include data by event or exposure, characteristics (examples: age, race, self-employed), occupation, and industry. Results of this survey can be requested from R&S and are available on our Web site.
