Occupational Safety and Health Data Analyst

ERG is a research and consulting firm that provides a wide range of support to federal, state, and commercial clients. ERG offers multidisciplinary teams with nationally recognized skills in engineering, science, economics, public health, informational technology, and communications. We hire people with the best minds and then provide them with a vibrant and flexible environment in which to develop their careers. The qualified individual must be highly motivated with the skills to prioritize, perform, and communicate effectively in a fast-paced environment. 

ERG is seeking curious, detail-oriented analysts to support national occupational safety and health programs by analyzing and classifying real-world workplace injury and illness data. Your work directly supports the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s (OSHA) efforts to understand injury and illness trends and improve worker safety across the U.S. This entry- or mid-level role is ideal for someone who enjoys analytical work, applies sound judgement consistently, and is motivated by contributing to real world improvements in worker health and safety. You will analyze work-related fatality, catastrophe, and severe injury or illness records, draft brief incident narratives, and assign case characteristic codes for each using the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Occupational Injury and Illness Classification System (OIICS).  

This full-time position is fully remote, giving you the flexibility to work from home. Teamwork is vital to our success, so you will partner daily with a supportive analyst team through Microsoft Teams. Additionally, if you prefer an in-person environment and live near one of our physical offices, you are welcome to use our workspace as well.  

Job Description:

• Review workplace injury, illness, and fatality records and apply standardized case‑classification codes using the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) Occupational Injury and Illness Classification System (OIICS)
• Exercise thoughtful, independent judgment to accurately classify complex or ambiguous cases while maintaining speed and consistency
• Draft brief, clear incident narratives that summarize the circumstances of each case in plain, concise language
• Manage multiple work queues and deadlines while maintaining high quality and attention to detail
• Collaborate regularly with team members and senior analysts for guidance, quality checks, and knowledge sharing
• Contribute to documentation, process improvements, and evolving analytical practices over time
• Experience with occupational health and safety and structured coding (e.g. OIICS, ICD coding) is preferred. However, training for OIICS version 3.03 coding will be provided
