We investigated rates of non-fatal accidents recorded in the Health Survey for England. Between 1995/96 and 2001, rates fell in men although not in women. In contrast to other trends for health behaviours in the United Kingdom, for example smoking, there was no increased gap between male manual and non-manual groups.
