Quick Start
from datasets import load_dataset
import pandas as pd
# Load the 1,000-row sample
ds = load_dataset("claritystorm/osha-workplace-injuries")
df = ds["train"].to_pandas()
# Total workplace deaths by year
print(df.groupby("survey_year")["total_deaths"].sum())
# Industries with highest average DART rate
print(df.groupby("industry_description")["dart_rate"].mean()
.sort_values(ascending=False).head(10))
# Establishments with zero injuries (benchmark group)
safe_pct = df["no_injuries_illnesses"].mean() * 100
print(f"Establishments with zero injuries: {safe_pct:.1f}%")
# Size class distribution
print(df["size_class"].value_counts())
