Circumstance Codes
1. Physical Act (Page F-2)
2. Location - Parts I, II, and III (Page F-4)
3. Event (Page F-6)
4. Tools, Machinery, Appliances, Structures, Surfaces, etc. (Page F-8)
5. Probable Reason for Injury/Illness (Page F-10)
A complete record of all of factors associated with an injury or illness would be beneficial in
prevention analysis. However, it is not practical, even if it were possible, to develop forms and
codes that would capture every detail that may be associated with each incident. When selecting
circumstance codes, use a combination that best identifies the key factors without duplicating
information identified by another code. The narrative portion of the report is to be used to
provide additional information concerning those items that cannot be adequately described on the
coded portions of the form.
