Footnotes: (1) Excludes farms with fewer than 11 employees. (2) The hours worked figures are annual average estimates of total hours worked by private industry wage and salary earners, 16 years of age and older, from the Current Population Survey (CPS). To maintain consistency with the CPS, injuries and illnesses incurred by workers under the age of 16 and cases for which the age of the worker was unspecified were not included in any comparisons with the hours data.
NOTE: Because of rounding and data exclusion of nonclassifiable responses, data may not sum to totals. Also, cases involving days away from work include those that result in days away from work with or without restricted work activity.
