Hello...I'm trying to set up a rolling weekly spreadsheet for AFR...I have the numbers, in terms of staff and hours worked, but I'm struggling to figure out how to enter this into a spreadsheet in order to work out a rolling weekly figure.....Tried a few youtube videos but nothing on AFR...Can anyone help, this would be greatly appreciated?

Weekly !!!

Do you have that many accidents ?

You may be better off monthly if you must do this. Do you mean a rolling, say 12 month average ( ie average for the last 12 months as each month changes ) ?

Or

We worked one month so many accidents with so many hours worked, next month we have now worked double the hours and had ( previous number + New number).

haha, thankfully we don't...I worked out a spreadsheet...was pretty simple when I finally figured it out....We have weekly management meetings, so if theres an accident, it'll affect the score, so my boss wants me to reflect that on the meetings....monthly would make more sense, but simply because of the weekly meetings, they want weekly scores...Got acountants to send the required information, so ill just do the calculation and compare to the previous week...thanks for the advice chris

I would still do a rolling 12 month average ( ie 52 week average). Otherwise one week no accident so good week, next week one accident so bad week, next week no accident so good week. It is such a short time scale that you will not see the big picture of safety initiatives.

easy in excel to do.
