^Within occupation major groups, some sub-major, minor and unit group information has been provided where some of the categories have sufficiently large sample cases to provide reliable estimates.

# Includes those who did not answer the question identifying the job to which their illness was ascribed and those who said their illness was ascribed to a job other than their current or most recent in the last 12 months.

Figures in italics are estimates based on fewer than 30 sample cases.
