Pacific Maritime Association

OCCUPATIONAL INJURY AND ILLNESS INCIDENCE RATES The Pacific Maritime Association processes injury and illness reports submitted by companies to analyze industry injury and illness trends. The information shown in the tables on this page is summarized from injury and illness reports submitted to PMA in 2025. The lost-time injury and illness incidence rate is based on Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) record-keeping criteria and is a national standard used by the government and most industries to provide an overall indication of injury and illness trends. The formula for the lost-time injury and illness incidence rate includes the number of lost-time injuries and illnesses that occurred in the workplace and the total hours worked during the period (usually one year). It is based upon a work force of 100, each working 2,000 hours per year. (Number of injuries and illnesses x 200,000 ÷ total hours worked = Incidence Rate) Southern Northern Pacific Northwest Year Coast California California Oregon Washington 2005 7.12 6.15 9.37 9.19 9.06 2006 6.41 5.13 10.69 6.79 9.32 2007 5.92 4.67 10.90 6.34 8.06 2008 5.92 5.00 9.49 7.38 6.81 2009 7.57 6.73 10.63 8.09 8.59 2010 5.81 4.96 8.32 7.56 6.78 2011 5.43 4.57 7.52 8.11 6.02 2012 5.46 4.53 8.22 9.37 5.48 2013 5.01 3.84 6.33 8.42 7.64 2014 4.81 3.72 6.32 8.17 7.76 2015 4.13 2.68 7.19 10.92 7.33 2016 4.14 2.98 6.67 8.48 6.89 2017 3.93 3.00 5.50 7.22 6.85 2018 3.48 2.80 4.96 5.47 5.33 2019 3.47 2.51 4.75 10.54 5.30 2020 3.51 2.44 6.78 6.85 5.72 2021 2.66 1.94 4.25 6.96 4.38 2022 3.36 2.42 4.47 8.16 6.13 2023 3.18 2.07 3.35 9.45 6.80 2024 3.03 2.41 3.70 6.58 4.70 2025 2.20 1.75 2.62 5.59 3.32 LOST TIME 'TOP TENS' FOR 2025 Accident Prevention Data GENERAL SAFETY TRAINING: A 35-YEAR HISTORY ON THE WATERFRONT THROUGH 12/31/2025 YEAR GRADUATES CUMULATIVE GST I – Safety First 1991 552 552 1992 5,246 5,798 1993 4,512 10,310 GST II – Your Right, Your Life 1994 1,068 1,068 1995 6,867 7,935 1996 4,798 12,733 GST III – What Counts 1997 2,993 2,993 1998 7,788 10,781 1999 4,059 14,840 GST IV – Going Home Safe 2000 4,007 4,007 2001 6,675 10,682 2002 5,464 16,146 GST V – Aware Today, Everyday 2003 3,443 3,443 2004 9,733 13,176 2005 12,332 25,508 2006 6,966 32,474 GST VI – Every Choice Counts 2007 10,704 10,704 2008 8,523 19,227 2009 5,388 24,615 GST 2010 8,593 8,593 2011 7,572 16,165 2012 10,746 26,911 GST VIII – Safety Doesn't Just Happen 2013 7,693 7,693 2014 6,775 14,468 2015 6,111 20,579 2016 6,338 26,917 2017 6,843 33,760 2018 7,002 40,762 2019 8,850 49,612 2020 4,357 53,969 2021 11,849 65,818 2022 10,645 76,463 2023 9,755 86,218 2024 11,506 97,724 2025 9,232 106,956 Most Injured Longshore Occupations Semi-Tractor 52 Holdman 46 Lasher 43 Mechanic, ILWU 24 Dockman 23 Auto Driver 22 Crane, Cont.
