Notes
- (a) per 100 000 workers
- (b) per 100 000 employees
- (c) 95% confidence intervals are given in brackets. They represent the range of uncertainty resulting from the estimate being derived from a sample of people, not from the entire population. They are calculated in such a way that the range has a 95% chance of including the true value in the absence of bias i.e.the value that would have been obtained if the entire population had been surveyed.
- * Non-fatal (major and over-3-day) injury statistics from 1996/97 cannot be directly compared with earlier years (see technical note).
- n/a Not available (see technical note).
- + Three-year average e.g. 2003/04 – 2005/06 (centred on 2004/05). More details about the data sources are given on HSE’s website at http://www.hse.gov.uk/statistics/sources.htm.
