safety metrics

Safety metrics are measurements used to assess how well a workplace or activity minimizes risks and prevents accidents. They track things like the number of incidents, near misses, or safety violations over a period of time. By analyzing these metrics, organizations can identify patterns, strengths, and areas needing improvement. Common safety metrics include lost time injury rate, incident frequency rate, and compliance with safety protocols. These indicators help ensure a safe environment, guide safety programs, and measure progress toward reducing accidents and promoting employee well-being.
