OSHA releases 2024 injury and illness data

On April 17, OSHA released 2024 injury and illness data collected via its Improve Tracking of Workplace Injuries and Illnesses regulation. The data include information from more than 370,000 establishments that submitted Form 300A, as well as partial data from more than 732,000 Form 300 and Form 301 records.

OSHA provides public access to this data in an effort to identify unsafe conditions and workplace hazards that may lead to occupational injuries and illnesses. The data may help employers:

• Recognize hazards in their own workplaces,
• Identify ways to control or prevent hazards, and
• Reduce occupational injuries and illnesses.
