Table INJGOR1_3YR - Averaged 2004/05-2006/07

Estimated incidence and rates of reportable non-fatal injury to workers, by country and government office region within England.

Note: Comparison of averaged 3 year estimates over time involving estimates based on overlapping time periods will not provide a robust indication of change over time.

Reportable workplace injuries include all those sustained as a result of a non-road traffic accident, resulting in over 3 days of absence from work.

Definitions and data reliability
See Table INJGOR1_3YRSIG for tests of statistical significance
Research by the Institute of Employment Research (IER) indicates that differing rates of non-fatal injury between regions is largerly explained by the industry/occupational profiles of the working population in those regions.
