According to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics, there were a total of 4.4 million nonfatal injuries and illnesses reported in private industry workplaces during 2003, resulting in a rate of 5.0 cases per 100 equivalent full-time workers. That means that one in 20 workers in the United States suffered some sort of injury or illness in the workplace.

The Bureau of Labor and Statistics also showed that there were over 5,000 workplace fatalities in 2003 in the United States, and more than 20% of those fatalities occurred within the construction context.
