Abstract

During 2011-2014, an average of 15.6 million medically attended injury episodes were reported annually among employed persons aged ≥13 years. Nearly half of these injury episodes resulted in time lost from work: 7% for <1 day, 26% for 1-5 days, and 15% for ≥6 days. An average of 9.4 million medically attended injury episodes were reported annually among persons aged ≥5 years who attended school. More than one third of these injury episodes resulted in time lost from school: 9% for <1 day, 25% for 1-5 days, and 3% for ≥6 days.
