跟蹤特定的安全指標Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR), Days Away, Restricted & Transfer Rate (DART), Lost Time Incident Rate (LTIR), Injury Severity Rates, First Aid Cases and Near Misses is a universal activity that nearly every company in every industry participates in to some extent.
Even though lagging indicators like these don’t really provide a complete picture of the overall health of a company’s safety program, theydostill provide key data about the number, type and severity of recordable injuries and illnesses that are occurring and they are also easy to interpret. For members of upper management and corporate executives who have a lot of information being thrown at them, basic safety metrics like these are extremely easy to understand because all they have to know is that low numbers are better than high numbers.
If you’re not currently using software like EHS Insight for your metrics reporting needs, it means you’re probably performing these calculations manually which we know can quickly become overwhelming. Performing these calculations on paper is really not ideal, especially when the accuracy of the information is tied to safety incentives or other programs.
If you’re not yet in the market for safety software like EHS Insight but you still need a way to track, calculate and present your basic safety metrics on a monthly, quarterly and annual basis, we’ve designed just the tool for you!
