- Slips, trips, and falls account for 30% of workplace injuries in Cheshire, followed by handling, lifting, or carrying incidents at 18%, mirroring national trends.
- Two fatal workplace injuries were reported in Cheshire in 2021, with construction and manufacturing being high-risk sectors across the region.
- Nationally, 561,000 workers sustained non-fatal injuries in 2021/22, with Cheshire’s share reflecting its active workforce in urban areas like Chester and Crewe.
