(1)
An additional five deaths resulting from public transportation incidents and criminal activity were also reported in 2012.
(2)
Metallurgical Coal’s application of the definition has differed slightly in that minor injuries that did not require medical treatment and did not result in restricted work for longer than five days were not included.
Excluding Metallurgical Coal, the Group LTIFR for 2012 was 0.53 and the LTISR was 208. This inconsistency is being rectified in 2013.
