Annual
Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses
In cooperation with the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, the MOSH Research and Statistics Unit conducts the Annual Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (see
2006 Maryland Survey Summary .) Each year approximately 4,200 Maryland business establishments, which are selected through a random statistical sampling process, participate in this survey. The annual survey estimates the
number and rate of nonfatal injuries and
illnesses (Excel document, 137KB, download
Excel viewer for free). The injury and illness estimates are based upon logs kept by employers during the year. The number of injuries and illnesses reported in any given year can be influenced by changes in the level of the State's economic activity, working conditions, work practices, worker experience and training, and the number of hours worked. The survey also provides details on the demographics of the more seriously injured and ill workers (e.g., occupation, sex, race and length of service) along with the characteristics of their injuries (e.g., nature of injury/illness, part of the body affected, event or exposure, and source of the injury/illness).
State and national policy makers use the annual survey data as an indicator of the magnitude of the occupational safety and health problem across the country. Government, private industry, labor organizations, manufacturers of safety equipment, researchers and academicians in the safety and health field are all stakeholders in this program. Maryland's survey results are included in the count when BLS compiles the national statistics. Maryland Occupational Safety and Health uses the data for agency performance measures and to identify high-hazard industries requiring outreach and intervention. Maryland employers use the survey data to measure the effectiveness of their own safety programs by comparing their injury and illness rates with the aggregate State and national data. Federal OSHA uses the survey data to measure the effectiveness of certain MOSH activities and in meeting the objectives of the Occupational Safety and Health Act by assuring safe and healthful working conditions for every working man and woman by reducing the number or work related injuries and illnesses.
Census of Fatal
Occupational Injuries (CFOI)
CFOI is a Federal/State cooperative program that provides details about fatal job related injuries. The CFOI program is a census meaning that it provides a comprehensive count of all Maryland workplace fatalities. Fatal injuries occurring in the private and public sectors, the military, the self-employed and certain volunteers are all counted. The CFOI program's methodology ensures that fatality counts are as complete and accurate as possible by cross-referencing diverse data sources in order to identify and verify fatalities. The personal identifiers of individuals and companies are kept confidential. The program provides workplace fatality data by occupational, industrial, and demographic characteristics in addition to the manner in which the fatal injury was produced.
OSHA Data Initiative
(ODI)
The MOSH Research and Statistics unit also conducts the Occupational Safety and Health Administration's Log Data Collection Initiative. The objective of this program is to collect occupational injury and illness data from private and public sector establishments in selected high-hazard industries. MOSH uses the data as a basis for targeting safety intervention programs, such as inspections, consultations, outreach initiatives and technical assistance. MOSH also uses the ODI data as a tool for measuring the effectiveness of the agency's performance.
