对佛蒙特州西北部 208 名连续接受治疗的木匠伤害的研究显示，每年受伤率为 13.3 至 17.2/100 名工人。大多数伤害的伤害评分为 1 级，7% 导致住院治疗。四分之一的伤害是由跌倒造成的，五分之一的伤害是由使用建筑材料或电动工具造成的。与大多数其他电动工具造成的伤害（通常涉及直接接触设备造成的创伤）相比，圆锯或“技能”锯造成的伤害大多数是飞扬的锯末造成的眼睛伤害。总体而言，43%的受伤人员没有工作残疾，但几乎五分之一的人残疾一个月或更长时间，尤其是背部受伤的人，他们通常只需要急诊室治疗，但后来却遭受长期残疾和昂贵的护理。所有伤害的平均住院费用和中位数分别为 347 美元和 70 美元，平均总护理费用和中位数分别为 376 美元和 90 美元。只有三分之一的付款来自工伤赔偿。个体木匠占受伤者的 17%，但未付账单的人占 36%。
Study of 208 consecutively treated injuries to carpenters in northwestern Vermont revealed an annual injury rate of 13.3 to 17.2/100 workers. Most injuries had an abbreviated injury score of 1 and 7% resulted in hospitalization. One quarter of the injuries resulted from falls, and one fifth each from use of construction materials or power tools. In contrast to injuries from most other power tools, which usually involved trauma from direct contact with the equipment, the majority of injuries from circular or "skill" saws were eye injuries from flying sawdust. Overall, 43% of injured persons had no disability for work, but almost one fifth were disabled for a month or longer, especially persons with back injuries, who usually required emergency department treatment only but then had prolonged disability and expensive care. Mean and median hospital costs for all injuries were $347 and $70, and mean and median total costs of care were $376 and $90. Only one third of payment came from workers' compensation. Self-employed carpenters comprised 17% of injured persons but 36% of those with unpaid bills.
