1  OPM provided OSHA with the data on the average number of employees for each department and independent agency for the period October 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005.[ Back to Table ]

2a,b,c  The employment totals for the Marine Corps, Homeland Security, and Veterans Affairs were obtained from OPM's Fedscope website and includes the most recent available data for the period September 2005.[ Back to Marine Corps] [ Back to Homeland Security] [ Back to Veterans Affairs]

3  The Total and Lost Time case numbers are derived from claims submitted to OWCP with "case create" dates from October 1, 2005 through December 31, 2005 (less cases denied with an adjudication status of D2, D3, D4, or D5).[ Back to Table ]

4  The Total Case Rate (TCR) and Lost Time Case Rate (LTCR) are calculated separately by dividing the number of total/lost time cases by the number of employees. The resulting number is multiplied by 100, for a rate per 100 employees.[ Back to Table ]

5  The "projected" end-of-year rates are calculated by dividing the Quarter 1 Total and Lost Time case rates by four for the annual rates.[ Back to Table ]
