Table 7.
Number of acute pesticide poisoning cases among retail workers 15–64 years of age, full-time equivalent estimates, incidence rates, and incidence rate ratios, by industry, 1998–2004 (N=287)
a
Full-time equivalent, in millions
b
Incidence rates per million FTEs. Includes retail workers in Arizona, California, Florida, Louisiana, Michigan, New York, Oregon, Texas, and Washington.
c
Compares rate of acute pesticide poisoning among specific industries with non-agricultural, non-retail workers. Cases are identified by participating SENSOR-Pesticides states. The incidence rate among non-agricultural, non-retail workers in SENSOR-Pesticides states was 13.91 per million FTEs from 1998–2004.
IRR = incidence rate ratios
CI = confidence interval
