Accident statistics - head/neck injuries

I've been pondering workplace safety and am interested in whether anybody can point me towards statistics for the cause of death for pilots in accidents - pilots only at this point. I'm looking to put together an outlay/outcome analysis for the company.

There is clear evidence that wearing fire resistant clothing and a helmet reduces the danger from an accident. I'm looking for what's next.

I have the impression that spinal / basal skull fractures are the next most significant group, but no more than that. Does anybody know of anything available?
