The National Safety Council, OSHA and NIOSH all have the info you are looking for. OSHA also instituted a "High Hazard" Category report which has been very good at identifying where the issues are and targeted training and site programs which are showing reductions. Look at OSHA's Annual Top Violation / Citation Categories (National Safety Council devoted an issue of thier Magazine to this study and effects - OCT 2005 I think), and you will find some of the info you are looking for as well. NSC also has an annual Injury and Illness Facts that I have a copy of. I can see if there is info on it for re-order if you would like to get a copy. Just let me know.
