Last year I introduced a number of KPI measures to report to board - I was new to the organisation and there was little reported. The Board have now asked what others do and I am hoping that someone would be happy to share their KPI's with me. Currently we have a range of accident categories with arbitrary numbers that we shouldn't exceed (finger in the air and experience judgement!), audits completed, actions identified as non conformities, lone working system usage, enforcement notice compliance, fire risk assessments, gas inspections and legionella inspections. I would appreciate any responses with what area and measures are being used by others. Thank you in advance.

I'm very fond of "proportion of inspection actions completed" (ie actions agreed as the result of an inspection)

Hopeful to be honest the list can be almost never ending, so as you are aware you need to select the KPI's that are most relevant to your Business/H&S arrangements; but here is a few you might find helpful: >Total of hours in safety and health training in the month > Percentage of occupational health and safety committee recommendations implemented > Percentage of corrective actions closed out within specified time-frame > Number of solved safety non-conformance's for the month

Hi, Hazards raised v hazards closed Actions raised v closed Training hours Accidents of course. We also use risk mapping as a performance measure, this is done by mapping out the site and marking on where, accidents (different categories off accident), along with hazards and near miss incidents are plotted. KPI's can then be set against this for each dept Also audit scores for each site/department Hope this helps

Hi Here are a few we use; Near miss reporting - Health and safety prevention costs within the month Lost time from injuries Number of safety inspections for the month that raised observations of N/C's % employees’ attend occupational health in the previous month (or current?) % of H&S issues raised by H&S Reps/employees actioned/resolved Products/services assessed for health & safety impacts/customer issues % employees trained for fire safety Fire safety checks for that month SOP’s that are not completed and signed off No. of H&S breaches/file notes/disciplinaries? Some of these are good for revisiting and showing how great your policies (or bad should the case be!!) are. jo x

I will only add "On time" to Kate's response. Bob

Bob, last year I included "on time" in the definition - to make it more ambitious once we had good results on getting the actions done at all.

Lots of ideas in the IOSH Guide, available via 'Books and resources', then 'Guidance and tools'. it covers both external and internal reporting.

Others may disagree with this one, but we also used to measure cost of accidents. To explain, we would measure cost of quality at a set amount per hour of time used up ( regardless of level of person) and any material and equipment used. It made sense to also do the same with H&S at a very basic level using the same set cost per hour (more than the person was paid). It was amazing the effect that seeing accidents in financial terms had. As I said a very basic calc, but it made people think (at all levels).
