    I came across this.  https://www.shponline.co.uk/global-legislation/occupational-health-and-safety-in-the-usa/


    There is a typographical error in this statement, which I think that I have corrected appropriately? If anyone knows better then please post.  

    In 2007, for example, 5657 US workers died in work-related accidents, which equates to a rate of 3.8 per 100,000 workers. In the UK, the same rate is 0.8 per 100,000 (my correction?). A recent study conducted by the European Agency for Safety and Health at Work identified a similar disparity in the non-fatal injuries, with the US rate being six times the UK equivalent.21
