About this Dataset

Iceland recorded 0.7 per 100,000 workers in 2023. That is unchanged on the previous period. Across 2011–2023 the series ranges from 0 in 2021 to 3.2 in 2016.

This page tracks the incidence rate of fatal accidents at work in Iceland, per 100,000 workers, across all economic sectors (NACE A_C-N). Compare against the EU average and note that sector mix drives much of the cross-country spread — construction, agriculture and transport carry structurally higher rates.

Data sourced from Eurostat via SDMX REST API. National reporting and compensation rules differ enough that cross-country levels are indicative only; a country's own series over time is the sounder comparison.
