2000 HAWAII REPORTED INJURIES AND ILLNESSES

In 2000, reported cases increased by 1,527 or approximately 5% to 31,836. This was the first increase of reported cases after eight consecutive decreases. One reason for the increase could be due to an increase in construction employment where more work hazards exist.

Although reported cases increased in every industry for 2000, only construction and finance, insurance

and real estate increased in frequency. Statistics show that construction changed from 1 in every 10 workers reporting an injury or illness to 1 in 9 workers. Finance, insurance and real estate reported 1 in 25 workers injured in 2000 compared to 1 in 28 workers in 1999.

TECHNICAL NOTES The Workers’ Compensation Data Book is based on the annual accumulation of data in the State of Hawaii, Disability Compensation data base. 1. The following coding systems and locally revised versions were used to categorize data:

a) Industrial attachment is determined by the principal activity of the employer as defined in the 1987 Standard Industrial Classification Manual. This manual is published by the Office of Management and Budget, Washington, D.C., U.S. Government Printing Office. Each subsidiary of a multi-industry establishment has been assigned its own industrial classification.

b) Codes and definitions used to categorize Nature of Injury or Illness, Part of Body Affected, Source of Injury or Illness, and Event or Exposure were modeled after the 1992 Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Occupational Injury and Illness Classification Structures (OIICS). Starting with 1996 data, BLS OIICS data codes were locally modified to 2 digits instead of 4 digits, making the data less detailed.

c) Occupational groups are based on the 1990 Alphabetical Index of Industries and Occupations, developed and published by the Bureau of the Census, Washington, D.C., U.S. Government Printing Office. Starting with 1996 data, the occupation classifications were locally modified, making the data less detailed.

2. From 1999, the employment data source used in the Worker’s Compensation Data Book has been

changed. Instead of the Labor Force Data Book employment we are using the Employment and Payrolls in Hawaii statistics. Employment data from the later publication may be more in line with workers covered under the Workers’ Compensation program. Caution should be taken when reviewing the employment and frequency data for trend analysis prior to 1999.

3. From 2000, the table Decisions Issued and Number of Hearings (previously called Compensation

Orders Issued and Number of Hearings) has changed to include Act 59 settlements and attorney fees. The combined category Permanent Partial & Disfigurement no longer exists. Figures are reported under the category with the highest severity. For example: a case with disability payments and disfigurement award would be counted in the disability category and not in disfigurement.
