A workplace can be defined as any physical space, whether a physical construction (such as a building or set of buildings) or not, in which at least one employed person carries out their work activities. Only those workplaces that are registered and could potentially be selected for labour inspection are included in the total number. For more information, refer to the Occupational Safety and Health Statistics (OSH) database description.
