This table contains findings of a survey performed by the Statistics and
Information Department of the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, on
the rates of deaths and injuries requiring an absence of 1 or more days
in the calendar years 2001 and 2002 at about 14,000 workplaces which employed
more than 100 workers and belonging to those lines of business which are
enumerated in this table. |
| 2. |
|
The lines of business enumerated in this table are in line with the Japan
Standard Industry Classification, excluding the construction and transport
industries. |
| 3. |
|
"Construction (General)" covers construction sites for which
the contract price exceeds ¥190 million or where the approximate premiums
under the Workmen's Accident Compensation Insurance were in excess of ¥1.6
million (As for construction that were put under contract on or before
March 31, 1999. "Construction (General )" covers construction
sites for which the contract price exceeds ¥120 million or where the
approximate premiums under the Workmen's Accident Compensation Insurance
were in excess of ¥1 million ). However, it dose not cover projects
for the installation of machinery and appliances, electric work and plumbing. |
| 4. |
|
The totals for "All industries" are those of the surveyed industries.
The totals for the surveyed industries do not include "Construction
(General)." |
| 5. |
|
The accident frequency rate is expressed in terms of the number of deaths
and injuries in occupational accidents per 1 million work-hours in the
aggregate. The rate is gained by dividing the number of deaths and injuries
(multiplied by 1 million) in occupational accidents that occurred during
the survey period by the aggregate number of work-hours for all workers
who were exposed to risks in the same period. |

The accident severity rate is expressed in terms of the number of workdays
lost per 1,000 work-hours in the aggregate. The rate is gained by dividing
the number of workdays lost (multiplied by 1,000) in occupational accidents
that occurred during the survey period by the aggregate number of work-hours
for all workers who were exposed to risks in the same period. |
