The information shown in the tables on this page is summarized from injury and illness reports submitted to PMA in 2014. 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 5.01 3.84 6.33 8.42 7.64 2014 4.68 3.61 6.11 7.94 7.44 Most Injured Occupations Semi-Tractor 146 Mechanic ILWU 109 Lasher 97 Clerk 61 Holdman 59 Dockman 47 Foreman/Walking Boss 32 Auto Driver 27 Mechanic (Non ILWU) 26 Crane Cont Gantry 22 Top Handler 22 Cause of Most Injuries Strained 273 Struck By 68 Slip 59 Slip/Trip/Fall <4ft 36 Bounced In Vehicle 34 Struck Against 33 Struck By 2 Vehicles 26 Trip 26 Struck By Other Vehicle 25 Caught Between 24 Most Common Injuries Sprain/Strain/Spasm 343 Multiple Types 246 Contusion 49 Cut, Laceration 32 Fracture 22 Crushing 21 Unclassified/Undetermined 10 Foreign Object in Eye 6 Toxic Respiratory 4 Hernia 3 Most Injured Body Part Mult.
