REPORT OF INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENT COMMISSION. 63. Fig. VIII. 64 EEPORT OP INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENT COMMISSION. Wage Loss of Those Who Were Temporarily Disabled. The serious aspects of the question of wage-loss due to temporaryinjuries have been overlooked. The probable reason for this is that theloss of time and money has been distributed over too large an area to besorely felt in any particular quarter. It is these small but numerouscontributions from 25,000 or more men that eat a $2,145,816 hole inthe annual wages of the 25,991 men, women and boys who are injuredfor a day or more every year. A little comparative study of the wage-loss of those temporarilydisabled, those permanently disabled, and those who were killed, willindicate the gravity of these small and numerous accidents. Forinstance, the wage loss of those permanently injured is estimated to be$1,783,125, and that of those killed to be $6,052,500, with $1,072,908
