Injuries - Statistics and Summaries 2006-2010

MMS requires that all Injuries be reported. Effective July 17, 2006, MMS revised the regulations for incident
reporting for Injuries. The number of Injuries for 2006 may be affected by this change when compared to other
years. The requirement for reporting Injuries is as follows:

  • MMS must be notified of injuries requiring evacuation and follow the notification with a written report.
     
  • MMS must receive a written report for any injury that results in one or more days away from work or one
    or more days on restricted work or job transfer. One or more days means the injured person was not
    able to return to work or to all of their normal duties the day after the injury occurred.
