National Occupational Mortality Surveillance (NOMS)

Overview of the NOMS System

National Occupational Mortality Surveillance (NOMS) is the ongoing systematic collection, analysis, and dissemination of death data to monitor the extent and severity of occupationally related acute and chronic disease and injury in association with industrial or occupational settings. Statistical results from the proportionate mortality analysis of these data are available in the form of a query system for access to precalculated PMRs by occupation or industry. Recently, PMR Charts and Tables were added that present proportionate mortality for cancer, neurologic, cardiovascular, diabetes, and renal disease and other chronic disease.
