August 13 - 19, 2018 Developing a Sound Safety & Health Program The second annual Safe + Sound Week will be held Aug. The event is a nationwide effort to raise awareness of the value of workplace safety and health programs. These programs can help employers and workers identify and manage workplace hazards before they cause injury or illness, improving a company’s financial bottom line. Throughout this week, organizations are encouraged to host events and activities that showcase the core elements of an effective safety and health program, including: management leadership, worker participation, and finding and fixing workplace hazards.

State Occupational Injuries, Illnesses, and Fatalities Overview of State data available State data presenting the number and frequency of work-related injuries, illnesses, and fatal injuries are available from two BLS programs: the BLS Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (SOII) and the BLS Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI). SOII provides estimates for nonfatal cases of work-related injuries and illnesses from participating States and Territories that are recorded by employers under the Occupational safety and Health Administration's (OSHA's) recordkeeping guidelines. CFOI publishes data on fatal cases of work-related injuries for all States, Territories, and New York City. Note: The number of States for which SOII data are available varies from year to year due primarily to changes in State participation in the SOII. Among participating States for which State-level estimates are available, the sample sizes often are not sufficient to generate estimates at the same level of detail as are available from the national estimates. The industries for which data are available also vary among States, primarily due to the differences in industry concentration and sample size from one State to the next. Many of these tables are available as PDF files only.
