2、y private industry employers in 2011, resulting in an incidence rate of 3.5 cases per 100 equivalent full-time workers, according to estimates from the Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (SOII) conducted by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. (See tables 1 and 2.) The rate reported for 2
3、011 was unchanged for the first time in a decade during which the total recordable cases (TRC) injury and illness incidence rate among private industry employers declined significantly each year since 2002, when estimates from the SOII were first published using the current OSHA requirements for rec
4、ording occupational injuries and illnesses. Key findings from the 2011 Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses The incidence rate of injury and illness cases involving job transfer or restriction only among private industry establishments declined in 2011. Rates remained unchanged from 2010 fo
5、r all other case typescases with days away from work, job transfer, or restriction together; cases with days away from work; and other recordable cases not requiring time away from work. (See chart 1.) Agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting was one of only two private industry sectors to experie
6、nce an increase in the rate of injuries and illnesses in 2011 compared to 2010, driven by increases in cases in both the crop production and animal production (primarily dairy cattle and milk production) industries. The rate of injuries and illnesses for the accommodation and food services sector al
7、so rose in 2011, driven largely by an increase in other recordable cases in both limited-service restaurants and full-service restaurants. Two private industry sectors experienced declines in the rate of injuries and illnesses in 2011 compared to 2010health care and social assistance (driven by decl
8、ines both in hospitals and in nursing and residential care facilities) and retail trade (with large declines in cases among supermarkets and other grocery stores and several other industries). Manufacturing was the only private industry sector in 2011 in which the rate of job transfer or restriction
9、 only cases exceeded the rate of cases with days away from work. This continued a 14- year trend during which this was true. However, the rates for these two case types have been converging in recent years and differed by only 0.2 cases in 2011. The incidence rate of injuries only among private indu
10、stry workers declined to 3.3 cases per 100 full-time workers in 2011down from 3.4 cases in 2010. (See table 5.) In comparison, the incidence rate of illness cases was statistically unchanged in 2011. (See table 6a.) The TRC rate among state and local government workers of 5.7 cases per 100 full-time
11、 workers in 2011 was unchanged from 2010, but was still significantly higher than the private industry rate. The incidence rates for state government and local government individually also remained unchanged in 20114.6 cases and 6.1 cases per 100 full-time workers, respectively. USDL-12-2121 - 2 - P
12、rivate Industry Injuries and Illnesses Injuries and illnesses by type of case. More than one-half of the nearly 3.0 million private industry injury and illness cases reported nationally in 2011 were of a more serious nature that involved days away from work, job transfer, or restrictioncommonly refe
13、rred to as DART cases. These cases occurred at a rate of 1.8 cases per 100 full-time workers, unchanged from 2010. (See table 7.) Among the two components of DART cases, the rate for cases requiring job transfer or restriction declined from 0.8 to 0.7 cases per 100 workers, while the rate for cases
14、involving days away from work remained unchanged in 2011 (1.1 cases). Other recordable casesthose not involving days away from work, job transfer, or restrictionaccounted for the remaining more than 1.4 million injury and illness cases nationally in 2011 and occurred at a rate that was unchanged fro
15、m 2010 at 1.7 cases per 100 full-time workers. The TRC injury and illness incidence rate remained highest in 2011 among mid-size private industry establishments (those employing between 50 and 249 workers) and lowest among small establishments (those employing fewer than 11 workers) compared to esta
16、blishments of other sizes. (See table 3 and chart 2.) Injuries. More than 2.8 million (94.8 percent) of the nearly 3.0 million nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses in 2011 were injuries. Among injuries, 2.1 million (75.2 percent) occurred in service- providing industries, which employed 82.5 percent of the private industry workforce covered by this survey. The remaining 0.7 million injuries (24.8 percent) occurred in goods-p
