Routinely collected vital statistics mortality data (death certificate data) on occupation and industry are useful for (1) generating hypotheses about potential occupational hazards and (2) identifying occupational mortality differentials possibly associated with socioeconomic and life-style factors. This paper presents a Fortran program that analyzes occupational mortality using vital statistics and census data. The user can form any desired grouping of age, race, occupation (or industry), and cause of death codes for analysis. The program also allows stratification on social class or other user-defined correlates of occupation such as smoking behavior. Furthermore, program output can be used for Poisson regression analysis of mortality rates.
