The information shown in the tables on this page is summarized from injury and illness reports submitted to PMA in 2013. 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 1995 10.90 8.90 15.60 11.50 12.80 1996 10.40 9.30 14.30 12.70 9.90 1997 9.40 8.20 11.60 11.20 11.20 1998 9.20 6.80 15.10 13.90 12.40 1999 8.67 6.64 13.70 12.60 11.20 2000 7.20 5.68 9.81 10.70 10.70 2001 8.40 6.60 13.30 9.64 12.60 2002 8.50 6.49 14.10 11.20 13.30 2003 7.50 6.00 10.50 10.00 11.90 2004 6.77 5.71 9.04 9.95 9.11 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 4.95 3.81 6.15 8.42 7.51 Most Injured Occupations Semi-Tractor 281 Lasher 191 Holdman 182 Mechanic ILWU 177 Clerk Computer 151 Foreman/Walking Boss 110 Dockman 102 Auto Driver 52 Crane Cont Gantry 47 Mechanic IAM 39 Cause of Most Injuries Strained 390 Struck By 172 Slip/Trip/Fall <4ft 121 Struck Against 109 Slip 107 Noise – Long term 99 Bounced In Vehicle 53 Struck By 2 Vehicles 52 Twisted 50 Trip 49 Most Common Injuries Sprain/Strain/Spasm 596 Multiple Types 455 Contusion 191 Cut, Laceration 104 Hearing Impairment – Illness 98 Foreign Object in Eye 42 Unclassified/Undetermined 34 Fracture 22 Other Illness NEC 14 Crushing 12 Most Injured Body Part Back 171 Knee 134 Ear – Internal 104 Fingers 103 Shoulder 83 Ankle 80 Head 64 Eye 53 Hand 48 Foot 42 ACCIDENT PREVENTION 'TOP TENS' FOR 2013 30 2 0 1 3 A N N U A L R E P O R T
