Providing access to injury and illness data will assist in identifying unsafe conditions and workplace hazards that may cause occupational injuries and illnesses. Recognizing these hazards will help detect ways to control or prevent them and reduce future injuries. At the core, making this data available protects workers and ensures their health and safety throughout their working day.

OSHA is taking additional steps to protect worker privacy by reviewing the remaining data for certain personally identifiable information. The agency will make additional data publicly available following the review.
