General practice statistics for the month of July 1986 were analyzed from a semirural town. There were 498 accident consultations and Maoris tended to be underrepresented. Thirty six percent of accidnets were at work, 30% in the home and 12.6% in sports. Twenty three percent of the accidents involved no time off work and 32% had up to a week off. Thirty percent made a claim for earnings related compensation to ACC. Eight patients had prolonged periods off work.
