Posted By RHOES Hi, Can anyone point me towards the most current information on accident statistics for the construction industry and more specifically, if possible, figures assigned to project values or project type, e.g. refurbishments, so that these may be compared to in-house figures. Idealy such information will include Accident Incidence Rates, Accident Frequency Rates, Accident Severity Rates, Reportable Accident Frequency Rates etc. Any help would be much appreciated. Regards Richard

Posted By roydickson The HSE website publishes annual accident statistics by industry and the construction industry is certainly covered.

Posted By Jay Joshi The Health and safety Execustive does publish detailed statistics on the following types of Construction activities, but they do not publish it on thier website the 4 digit SIC data. I as a matter of habit routinely request the HSE Statistics Unit to provide the 4 digit data and they do it every year. I have given up suggesting to HSE that such queries should be searchable on the HSE website via some form of a database. I guess the reason is that overall, this does not add value in conext of HSE's priorities. 4511 - Demolition & wrecking of buildings 4512 - Test drilling & boring 4521 - General construction of buildings etc 4522 - Erection of roof covering & frames 4523 - Construction of highways, roads etc 4524 - Construction of water projects 4525 - Other construction involving special trades 4531 - Installation of electrical wires / fittings 4532 - Insulation work activities 4533 - Plumbing 4534 - Other building installation 4541 - Plastering 4542 - Joinery installation 4543 - Floor & wall covering 4544 - Painting & glazing 4545 - Other building completion 4550 - Renting of construction equip. & operator I can e-mail you the 2007/8 provisional data for the above ones.
