Berkeley Lab Accident Statistics Through December 31, 2010

These slides are updated on a monthly basis, as soon as data are reasonably final for the preceding month. Hours worked are estimated monthly and updated with final and actual values quarterly.While every effort is made to present accurate and final data, data may change in subsequent months, as additional information becomes available and as later developments change the recordability of some cases.

Narrative of December 2010 Injury/Illness Cases

• Guest Post Doctoral Fellow – Chemical splash to face– The employee was working in a fume hood

adjacent to another employee’s sonication apparatus. A glass vial in the sonicator bath failed causing a splash of dilute HCl to the forehead and safety glasses.

• Program Manager – Repetitive strain of right wrist– Intensive work on a project report involving long

hours at the computer without taking adequate breaks. Heavy mouse use for text and data manipulation contributed to the injury.

Narrative of December 2010 Injury/Illness Cases

• Lead Plumber / Fitter – contact with vacuum system oil– While removing a port cap from an exhaust vent

line, some residual oil that had built up in the drop leg of the port spilled onto the employee’s hand.

• Administrative Assistant – Strain of right hand and arm– The employee developed discomfort and pain

(strain), in the right upper extremities, associated with the work load and types of keyboard and mouse activities required in the performance of job duties. Work load distribution and software system design and “glitches” associated with travel support have contributed to this injury.
