  4. Hand Injury Statistics • Over 1,000,000 hand injuries in the U.S. alone • 70% of hand injuries result from not wearing any type of hand protection • 20% of disabling workplace injuries involve hands • 30% of hand injuries caused by wearing the wrong glove • Over $740,000,000 in hand and wrist injuries 4

  5. Hand Injury Statistics These are huge costs, especially when considering that 70% of hand injuries are caused by not wearing any type of hand protection. OSHA provides a breakdown of various occupational injuries and estimates of what they cost per year, per incident: • Lacerations: $40,023 • Punctures: $47,703 • Fractures: $101,833 • Crushing: $118,769 5
