The downward trend in workplace injuries and illnesses has continued, resulting in the lowest numbers of cases and total case rate on record. Since 2003, the number of Minnesota workers has increased by more than 110,000. At the same time, the estimated number of recordable injury and illness cases has decreased by about 23,700.
Still, on average, unintentional injuries take the lives of more than 1,800 Minnesotans each year. Non-fatal injuries affect the lives of tens of thousands more.
