Frequently Asked Questions

The most common severe workplace injuries include amputations, fractures, crushing injuries, burns, and multiple injuries. Falls, being struck by objects, caught-in/between incidents, and exposure to harmful substances are among the most common event types.
Use the employer search field in the filter bar above. Enter a company name or partial name and click Filter. The search is case-insensitive and matches partial names, so you can find all reports for a company even if the exact legal name varies across reports.
