Occupational Health indicators measure the health outcomes and demographics of Missouri workers. These measures are used by citizens, governmental agencies, and businesses throughout the state to learn about and improve worker health.
Topics range from the type of workforce to specific health outcomes. Workforce demographics include age, race, ethnicity, gender, industry, and occupation. Health outcomes include information on burns, amputations, workers’ compensation claims, and some cancers.
