Data source(s) and notes about the submission:
Universities with hospitals will have significantly higher injury rates than universities not associated with healthcare. This is because education has relatively low average injury rates whereas healthcare (hospitals & long term care especially) has relatively high injury rates due to increased musculoskeletal injures and needlesticks.
