Adding Insult to Injury: Statistics Are Workers With the Tears Washed Off
A new report from OSHA sheds light on the relationship between workplace injuries and illnesses and income inequality for millions of Americans.
Each year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) releases data regarding workplace injuries, illnesses and fatalities. The data is sliced and diced according to industry, job task, body part, causation and demographics (age, sex, race). This enormous amount of data usually adds up to slightly fewer fatalities and injuries than the year before and points to some industries and demographics where more education is needed.
