Occupational Safety and Health Statistics Program

The mission of the Occupational Safety and Health Statistics Program is to support continued improvement of workplace environments by compiling and presenting data to employers, employees, researchers, industry professionals, and policy-makers, so that these data can be used to devise strategies to reduce occupational injuries and illnesses. The Department of Labor Standards administers the Annual Survey of Occupational Injuries and Illnesses for all private-sector and public-sector industries, trades, and occupations. This survey, conducted in partnership with the U.S. Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, provides detailed information on injuries and illnesses in the workplace. Selected employer units receive a pre-notification package in the December prior to the calendar year in which they are required to maintain records.

The department also conducts the OSHA Data Initiative every spring/summer, collecting workplace injury and illness data from thousands of private sector establishments in Massachusetts.
