From: Bethany Boggess Hello everyone, Your assistance in finding these data sources was extremely helpful: * Using aggregated government sources & crowd-sourced information, 78,324 fatalities that occurred in 2012 and 8,849 fatalities in 2013 have been mapped. Additional government sources are still in the process of being mapped. You can view the maps here: http://www.globalworkerwatch.org/ Since the project started in late December 2013, people & organizations from over 20 countries have contributed data. You can search 2014 data by country, industry, age, etc. here: http://www.globalworkerwatch.org/#!download/c1a8i Data for all 3 years can also be downloaded as a Google spreadsheet. Please continue sending any data sets you may know of, and you can submit information about individual cases directly: http://www.globalworkerwatch.org/#!submit/c10s4 Thanks for your hard work & let me know if you have any questions,
