Besides injury and illness counts, survey respondents are also asked to provide additional information for a subset of the most serious nonfatal cases logged — namely, those that involved at least one day away from work, beyond the day of injury or onset of illness. Employers answer several questions about these cases, including the demographics of the worker disabled, the nature of the disabling condition, and the event and source producing that condition.

Detailed breakouts of injury and illness data are available by a variety of characteristics, including age, category, event, gender, industry, length of service, nature, occupation, part of body, race, and source.

All data are annual and are reported to one decimal place. OSHS Characteristics data are published annually.
