520 _aPresents the statistics of work related illnesses and workplace injuries in Great Britain, for the period of 2007-2008. Reports as key facts that 2.1 million people were suffering from a work-related illness. In the category of injuries, 229 workers were killed at work. 34 million days were lost, 28 million due to work-related injury, 6 due to workplace related injury. Shows that the target for fatal and major injuries were on track to meet the Revitalising Health and Safety target. On the opposite, the categories "Ill health" and "Days lost per worker" were probably not on track to meet the Revitalising Health and Safety target. Concludes that on the matter of enforcement, 1028 offences were prosecuted by the Health and Safety Executive, while 354 offences were prosecuted by local authorities. Tables and maps.
