Appendix A
GlossaryAnnual average employment: This is the average number of full- and part-time employees who worked during the calendar year. It includes all classes of employees (administrative, supervisory, clerical, professional, technical, sales, delivery, installation, construction, and service personnel, as well as operating and related workers).
Days away from work, restriction, or job transfer (DART): Days that an employee, due to occupational injury or illness:
• Missedoneormoredaysof work
• Couldnotperformoneormoreroutinejobfunctions, or work the full day that would have otherwise been worked (job transfer or restriction)
• Couldwork,butthephysicianorotherlicensedhealth care professional recommended the employee not perform one or more routine job functions, or not work the full day that would have otherwise been worked (job transfer or restriction)
• Hadworkrestrictionthatonlyaffectedoneormoreroutine job functions (job transfer or restriction)
• Workedapartialdayof work,exceptforthedayonwhich the injury occurred or the illness began (job transfer or restriction)
Employment size group: A grouping of establishmentswithinaspecifiedemploymentrange.
Establishment: A single physical location where business is conducted or where services or industrial operationsareperformed(forexample:afactory,mill,store, hotel, restaurant, movie theater, farm, ranch, bank,salesoffice,warehouse,orcentraladministrativeoffice).Itisasinglephysicallocationwheredistinctlyseparate activities are performed (such as contract construction activities operated from the same physical location as a lumber yard); each activity shall be treated as a separate establishment.
First-aid treatment: One-time treatment and subsequent observation of minor scratches, cuts, burns, splinters, and so forth that do not ordinarily require medical care, even if care is provided by a physician or registered professional.
Hours worked: Total hours worked by all employees. Itincludesalltimeonduty,butexcludesvacation,holiday, sick leave, and all other nonwork time, even though paid.
Incidence rate (IR): Number of injuries and illnesses per 100 full-time workers per year. The rate is calculated as:
IR = (N/EH)x200,000
where: N = number of injuries and illnesses or days away from work, restriction, or job transfer
EH = totalhoursworkedbyallemployeesduring the calendar year
200,000 = basefor100equivalentfull-timeworkers (working 40 hours per week, 50 weeks per year)
Medical treatment: Treatment administered by a physician or a registered professional under the standing ordersof aphysician.Medicaltreatmentdoesnotincludefirst-aidtreatmentprovidedbyaphysicianorregistered professional, nor does it include treatment ordinarily considered diagnostic or preventive in nature.
North American Industry Classification System (NAICS):AclassificationsystemdevelopedbytheOfficeof StatisticalStandards,ExecutiveOfficeof thePresident/Officeof ManagementandBudgetfor use in classifying establishments based on the activitiesinwhichtheyareprimarilyengaged.NAICSdividestheeconomyinto20sectors.Establishmentsaregrouped into industries according to the similarity of productionprocesses.Establishmentsmaybeclassifiedin2-,3-,4-,5-,or6-digitindustries,accordingtothedegree of information available.

Revisions to the Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses The annual survey provides estimates of the number and frequency (incidence rates) of workplace injuries and illnesses based on logs kept by employers during theyear.Theserecordsreflectnotonlytheyear’sinjuryandillnessexperiencebutalsotheemployers’understanding of which cases are work related under recordkeeping rules declared by the Occupational SafetyandHealthAdministration(OSHA),U.S.Department of Labor.
OnJan.19,2001,OSHAreviseditsrequirementsforrecording occupational injuries and illnesses. These revisionsbecameeffectiveJan.1,2002.
Due to the revised recordkeeping rule, the estimates fromthe2002-2010surveysarenotcomparablewiththose from previous years. The survey was not designed to determine the impact of the revision on the estimates of nonfatal occupational injuries and illnesses.
Details about the revised recordkeeping requirements, including a summary of the revisions and a comparison between the old and new requirements, areavailablefromthefederalOSHAwebsiteathttp://www.osha.gov/recordkeeping/index.htmloritsOfficeof PublicAffairsat202-693-1999.

Atotalof 4,327sampleunits(includingrailroadandmining)wereselectedtoparticipateinthe2010survey,with3,912collectableunits.Theoriginalandtwo follow-up mailings, plus telephone calls, resulted in3,868usablereplies,a98.9percentoverallusableresponserate.About9.6percentof thesampleunitswereexcludedfromthefinaltabulationfromwhichthe usable response rate was generated. The most commonreasonsforexclusionwerethatthesample

Additional data were obtained to supplement the mailed questionnaires. Data conforming to OSHAdefinitionsforminingenterprisesinOregonwereobtainedfromtheMineSafetyandHealthAdministration(MSHA),whichhasstatutoryauthority affecting occupational safety and health incoal,metal,andnonmetalmining.MSHAprovideddatafor296miningestablishments.Datafrom19establishmentsengagedinrailroadtransportationwereobtainedfromtheFederalRailroad Administration of the Department of Transportation.
Intotal,the2010surveydataincludedreportsfrommorethan3,500privateestablishments.Onehundred twenty-two reports were received from stategovernmentunits,and251localgovernmentunits reported.
Survey questionnaireThe survey questionnaire requests information regarding employment, total hours worked, and the tabulation of occupational injuries and illnesses by type (fatalities, days away from work, and nonfatal cases without lost workdays). Additional information is sought regarding the type of illnesses contracted, the number of days away from work, and days of restricted work or job transfer resulting from work-relatedinjuriesandillnesses.(SeeAppendixGforasampleof thesurveyformandinstructions.)Federalgrant arrangementsspecifythattherespondentfillout a single reporting form. The data are then used to develop both state and national estimates. This
12
OREGON OCCUPATIONAL INJURY AND ILLNESS SURVEY TABLE AND APPENDICES ■ CY 2010
elimination of reporting duplication by respondents, in conjunction with the use of identical statistical techniques at the state and national levels, ensures maximumcomparabilityof theestimates.
Sample designTheU.S.Bureauof LaborStatisticsselectedthesampleof Oregon’sprivateandpublicsectoremployers to produce estimates of the number of occurrences and incidence rates of occupational injuries and illnesses at a certain level of precision. BecausetheOccupationalSafetyandHealthprogramrequiredestimatesbyindustry,theuniversewasfirststratifiedintostategovernment,localgovernment,andprivateownership,andthenstratifiedintoindustries according to the North American Industry ClassificationSystemManual,2007Edition.
StudiesconductedbytheBureauof LaborStatisticshave generated the variance in incidence rates within thespecifiedgroupsof industries.Usingthismeasureof variance, number of establishments in an industry, and the employment in large establishments, a sample sizewasdeterminedforeachindustry.Industrieswithhigherexpectedincidenceratestendtobesubjecttomore variability and were allotted a proportionately larger sample than industries with lower rates. Industries dominated by a few large establishments required proportionately smaller samples (if all of the large establishments were sampled) than industries composed of small establishments.
Thenumberof injuriesandillnessesexperiencedbyan establishment varies according to its number of
employees.Forthisreason,allestablishmentswithinanindustrywerestratifiedintoemploymentsizegroups.
Theselectionof sampleunitswasoptimizedbydistributingtheindustrysampleamongthesizegroups in proportion to the total employment in the industryandthevariationinthesizegroups.Largerestablishments, then, were more likely to be part of the samplethansmallones.Usually,establishmentswithmore than 100 employees were certain to be sampled, althoughthatfigurewaslowerforindustrieswitharelatively small total work force.
Estimation proceduresThe injury and illness data reported by the sampling units in each estimating cell were weighted (multiplied) bytheinverseof thesamplingratio.Forexample,asampled establishment representing itself and three other establishments was assigned a weight of four. The reported data were multiplied by four in the estimation procedure.
The data were also benchmarked or adjusted for nonresponse and for any new establishments that became part of the universe after the sample was drawn.Benchmarkingequalizestheemploymentineach estimating cell to a known employment for the survey period.
A benchmark factor was calculated for each estimating cell by dividing current employment estimates of the universe, or target employment, by the weighted employment produced from the sample.1Weighteddata for each industry were then benchmarked to generatefinalestimates.2

Appendix D
Instructions for Computing Incidence Rates for an Individual CompanyIncidence rates for an individual establishment or company may be calculated by employers by using the same formula used to calculate industry wide incidence rates from the annual Occupational Injury and Illness Survey.Employersmaythencomparetheirownworkinjury and illness rates to the overall rates in their industry in Oregon or the nation.
The formula requires the following: (1) the number of injuriesandillnessesand(2)thenumberof hoursactually worked by all employees during the reference period. To produce an overall incidence rate determine the following:
(1) The total number of cases with days away from work, restriction, or job transfer and other recordable cases. This may be done by adding the totalforcolumnsH,I,andJontheLogof Work-RelatedInjuriesandIllnesses(OSHAForm300).TodeterminetheDARTrate,addcolumnsH&Ionly.
(2) Thetotalnumberof hoursactuallyworkedduringthe year by all employees from payroll or other
timerecords.Thehoursworkedfigureshouldnotinclude any non-work time even though paid, such as vacation, sick leave, holidays, etc. (If actual hours worked are not available for employees paid on commission, salary, by the mile, etc., hours worked may be estimated on the basis of scheduled hours or eight hours per workday.)
The formula for computing the incidence rate is as follows:
(1) Number of injuries and illnessesx200,000 =Incidencerate(2) Employeehoursworked
This rate represents the number of injuries and illnessesoccurringper200,000hoursof workexposureor 100 full-time equivalent workers. The same base is used in computing the occupational injury and illness rates for Oregon and the nation.
An employer may compute rates for injuries; illnesses; days-away-from-work cases, including days away from work with or without job transfer or restriction; other recordable cases (medical-treatment cases); or the
14
OREGON OCCUPATIONAL INJURY AND ILLNESS SURVEY TABLE AND APPENDICES ■ CY 2010
numberof lostworkdays.Simplyreplacethenumberof injuries and illnesses (1) in the formula with the measure for which the rate is being computed.
It is also possible to compute rates on a monthly, quarterly, or semiannual basis, by department, or any other grouping of employees. The formula, including theconstant200,000,remainsthesame.However,
the time frame or department used for the number of injuries and illnesses (or other measure) should correspondtothehoursworked,(2)intheincidencerateformula.Forexample,tocomputeamonthlyrate,use the number of work injuries and illnesses for the month in the numerator and the number of employee hours worked for that month in the denominator.
Appendix E
Reliability of the Estimates
The incidence rates and case estimates are based on an annual sample of Oregon employers and, as a result, maydifferfromfiguresthatwouldhavebeenobtainedhad a complete census of establishments been possible using the same procedures. As in any survey, the results are subject to errors of response and reporting, as well as sampling variability. Errors of response and reportingareminimizedthroughcomprehensiveeditprocedures and follow-up contact with employers. Errorsof samplingvariabilityareminimizedthroughtheuseof randomizedstratifiedsamplingtechniques.
The relative standard error is a measure of sampling variability; that is, variations that occur by chance because only a sample of establishments is included in the survey. The relative standard error taken togetherwiththecharacteristic’sestimatedvalueservestodefinetheconfidenceintervalsorrangesthat would include the comparable complete-coverage value. The chances are about two out of three that the estimate would have been produced in the range of one standard error above to one standard error below the estimated value, and about 19outof 20thattheestimatewouldhavebeenin
the range of two standard errors above and below theestimatedvalue.Furthermore,thechancesareabout997outof 1,000thattheestimatedvalueof the characteristic would have been in the range of three relative standard errors above and below the estimated value.
The relative standard errors for the private sector estimates overall are displayed in Table E1 (page 15). The use of these relative standard errors may be clarifiedbyanexample.Theprivatesectorhasanestimated incidence rate for total recordable cases of 3.9per100full-timeworkersandarelativestandarderrorof 2.8percent.Thechancesaretwooutof three that a complete census would produce a rate between3.8and4.0andthechancesare19outof 20thattherateproducedfromthecompletecountwouldbebetween3.7and4.1.Thechancesare997outof 1,000,or99.7percentof thetime,thattherategenerated from a complete census would be between 3.6and4.2.Similarconfidenceintervalscanbedeveloped for the other survey-generated estimates by using the same methodology described above.

All deaths, days away from work, restricted work or transfertoanotherjob,medicaltreatmentbeyondfirstaid, or loss of consciousness are recordable.
Allsignificantinjuriesorillnessesdiagnosedbyaphysician or other licensed health care professional are recordable.
Significant work-related casesWork-relatedcasesinvolvingcancer,chronicirreversible disease, a fractured or cracked bone, or a punctured eardrum must always be recorded under the general criteria at the time of occurrence.
Recordable and nonrecordable injuries Each case is distinguished by the treatment provided: i.e., if the injury required medical treatment, it is recordable;if onlyfirstaidwasrequired,itisnot
recordable.However,medicaltreatmentisonlyoneof several criteria for determining recordability. Regardless of treatment, if the injury involved loss of consciousness, restriction of work or motion, or transfer to another job, the injury is recordable.
