Quarterly injury figures

The numbers of fatal injuries are based on early notification to HSE and local authorities. Many such cases are still under investigation, and thus the data provided and the count of fatalities are subject to revision as more relevant information becomes available.

This data is a snap shot from the live database held at the Incident Contact Centre, HSE's point of contact for receiving workplace incident reports. Its purpose is to provide an early indication of the latest trends in accidents to employees reported under RIDDOR. The figures are unvalidated and relate to injury reports enforced by HSE’s Field Operations Directorate and local authorities (approximately 95% of the total).
