Abstract
This report presents the results of a survey of national and international data sources on the costs of work-related injuries, illnesses and deaths. The aim was to evaluate the quality and comparability of different sources as a first step towards estimating the costs of accidents and ill-health at work in Europe. The survey found that there were insufficient data to determine these costs exactly; however, recommendations are made on using estimates to bridge the data gap. Including the summary.
