Employee-hours (2000+)
Rates use contractor-reported employee-hours as the denominator. About 2% of reported hours are dropped as duplicate filings, so the hours total runs slightly low and any per-hour rate reads slightly high. Quarters filed with zero hours are excluded, and hours are reported only from 2000 on.

Fatalities / million hrs
The recorded deaths predate MSHA's contractor employee-hours data, which begins in 2000, so no rate can be computed.
