The objective of this programme would be to provide an adequate statistical base for the various users, taking into account the specific national needs and circumstances.

--* (b) //commuting accident//: an accident occurring on the habitual route, in either direction, between the place of work or work-related training and:
--** (i ) the worker’s principal or secondary residence;
--** (ii) the place where the worker usually takes his or her meals; or (iii) the place where he or she usually receives his or her remuneration; which results in death or personal injury;
--* (c) //occupational injury//: any personal injury, disease or death resulting from an occupational accident; an occupational injury is therefore distinct from an occupational disease, which is a disease contracted as a result of an exposure over a period of time to risk factors arising from work activity;
--* (d) //case of occupational injury//: the case of one worker incurring an occupational injury as a result of one occupational accident;
--* (e) //incapacity for work//: inability of the victim, due to an occupational injury, to perform the normal duties of work in the job or post occupied at the time of the occupational accident.

Where it is practical and considered relevant to include injuries resulting from commuting accidents, the information relating to them should be compiled and disseminated separately.

  = Comparative measures =
 . In order to permit meaningful comparisons of the statistics, for example between different periods, economic activities, regions and countries, account needs to be taken of the differences in employment size, changes in the number of workers in the reference group, as well as in the hours worked by those in the reference group. A number of rates which take into account these differences may be calculated, including the following measures, which are among those most useful for comparing information at both the national and international levels. The term “workers in the reference group” refers to those workers in the particular group under consideration and covered by the source of the statistics of occupational injuries (for example those of a specific sex or in a specific economic activity, occupation, region, age group, or any combination of these, or those covered by a particular insurance scheme).
