If you are looking for statistics on the number of injuries that occur in the workplace in Colorado, you can find this information in the annual statistical publication Work-Related Injuries in Colorado, issued by the Colorado Department of Labor and Employment (CDLE). Issues back to 1995 are available from our library. (It takes the department a couple of years to compile the data, so the most recent issue right now, for instance, covers 2013). Older issues can be checked out in print. There are also a number of other publications available from our library that provide information on occupational injuries, worker safety, and worker’s compensation. Some helpful resources include:
- Annual Report, Colorado Occupational Health and Safety Surveillance Program
- Colorado Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries (2002)
- Occupational Health Indicators in Colorado (2011)
- Occupational Health Indicators in Colorado 2012 Update
- Worker Safety at the Colorado Department of Transportation (2009)
- Also see CDLE’s Worker’s Compensation Publications webpage
