Fatal Occupational Injury Events and ExposuresCensus of Fatal Occupational Injuries (CFOI)

The tables on this page are produced by the Bureau of Labor Statistics and provide the total number of California workplace deaths each year and give a comprehensive view of the distribution of these workplace deaths across industries, occupations, worker characteristics and demographics, and the event or exposure that led to the workplace death. The CFOI Dashboard, which can be located here, is an interactive data visualization tool that allows users to explore this data in greater detail and with user-defined parameters.

Final Data

The final data provide a comprehensive view of the overall burden and distribution of fatalities across industries, occupations, events or exposures, and worker demographic groups. These data help identify where fatalities are occurring and which populations are most affected, with additional breakdowns by private sector, public sector, and all sectors combined to support comparisons across employment settings and trends over time.
