  In conjunction with the development of service industries, the workforce in tertiary industries is increasing. As a
result, the rate of accidents in tertiary industries is on the rise. Recently, accidents that result in death and injury
(requiring an absence for 4 days or more) in tertiary industries accounted for about 40% of all accidents.
