What percentage of emergency treated occupational injuries resulted in hospital admission?

  1. Almost 2%

  2. About 10%

  3. Approximately 25%

  4. Nearly 50%

Options B, C, and D are incorrect because they all represent higher values and would be considered a significant amount of hospital admissions, which contradicts the given information.
