(a) Traditional hierarchy of injury/illness definition classification. (b) Alternative hierarchy of injury/illness definition classification. TL = time-loss; * classification of an injury or illness is based on the initial status of the injury and not on any subsequent change of status during the time course of its recovery and ** while injuries/illnesses are always required to be classified as either time-loss or medical-attention (or performance-restriction) is should be noted that there can and always will be overlap between categories.
