Incident rates are calculated by multiplying the number of injuries and illnesses from the OSHA Form 300 by 200,000, divided by the total number of hours worked by all employees for the year. 

Entry is free for members of the MCAA. Winners will be announced and presented awards at the MCAA Midyear Meeting in Memphis from September 12-16, 2021.
