There's a website somewhere you can find a list of H&S abbreviations, but I can remember where it is!

Perhaps someone does?

The various messages above demonstrate how dangerous it is to use an abbreviation without defining what it means first. All of the answers can be and are correct depending upon the context the abbreviation is used in. We have to get out of the habit of flinging abbreviations around and get into the habit of using proper terms or at least defining the abbreviation the first time we use it.

LOST TIME INJURY to me. I believe it comes from (OSHA?)USA originally.

Also LTA - Lost Time Accident.

Cheers for all those feedbacks.... I did do a search on it before I decided to pop the question up on this forum but couldn't find the answer. I am just into my 3rd mth as a Quality Controller, thus I hv loads and loads to learn up! And everyone in this forum has been real helpful.
