A manual on Occupational injuries statistics from household surveys and establishment surveys has been prepared recently by the ILO Bureau of Statistics, as a follow-up to the resolution concerning statistics of occupational injuries (resulting from occupational accidents), adopted by the 16th International Conference of Labour Statisticians (ICLS) in 1998, in collaboration with the then ILO InFocus Programme on Safety and Health at Work and the Environment (SafeWork).

This manual is aimed to assist those responsible for compiling data on occupational injuries with newly developed tools for collecting data from household surveys and establishment surveys, as well as enhancing comparability of data among countries by encouraging the application of the latest international statistical standards.

Copies can be obtained through major booksellers or ILO local offices in many countries, or direct from ILO Publications, International Labour Office, CH-1211 Geneva 22, Switzerland, E-mail: pubvente@ilo.org, Internet: www.ilo.org/publns.
