Posted By Jay Joshi The various accident rate calculations are "standard" reactive measures of safety performance, as long as you ensure that whatever comparision/benchmarking you do has the same "rate factor", whether it is number of hours, days or employees and that selection criteria, i.e. OSHA and RIDDOR are entirely different criteria The GB "All reported injuries rate per 100 000 employees" (AIR) for RIDDOR (to employees), for year 2006/7 provisonal is 535.9 Refer to:- http://www.hse.gov.uk/statistics/tables/table1.htm
