Thermax Power O&M 3

 One way to improve the effectiveness of your safety process is to change the way it
is measured.

Measurement is an important part of any management process and forms the basis
for continuous improvement. Measuring safety performance is no different and
effectively doing so will compound the success of your improvement efforts.

Finding the perfect measure of safety is a difficult task. What you want is to measure
both the bottom-line results of safety as well as how well your facility Finding the
perfect measure of safety is a difficult task. What you want is to measure both the
bottom-line results of safety as well as how well your facility is doing at preventing
accidents and incidents. To do this, you will use a combination of lagging and leading

 Lagging indicators of safety performance

What is a lagging indicator?

Lagging indicators measure a company’s incidents in the form of past

accident statistics.
Examples include:
1. Injury frequency and severity
2. OSHA recordable injuries
3. Lost workdays
4. Worker’s compensation costs

Why use lagging indicators?

Lagging indicators are the traditional safety metrics used to indicate
progress toward compliance with safety rules. These are the bottom-
line numbers that evaluate the overall effectiveness of safety at your
facility. They tell you how many people got hurt and how badly.

 The drawbacks of lagging indicators.

The major drawback to only using lagging indicators of safety

performance is that they tell you how many people got hurt and
how badly, but not how well your company is doing at preventing
incidents and accidents.

The reactionary nature of lagging indicators makes them a

poor gauge of prevention. For example, when managers see
a low injury rate, they may become complacent and put
safety on the bottom of their to-do list, when in fact, there are
numerous risk factors present in the workplace that will
contribute to future injuries.

 Best practices for using leading indicators

Companies dedicated to safety excellence are shifting their focus to

using leading indicators to drive continuous improvement. Lagging
indicators measure failure; leading indicators measure performance,
and that’s what we’re after!

According to workplace safety thought leading indicators

should:
Allow you to see small improvements in performance
Measure the positive: what people are doing versus failing to do
Enable frequent feedback to all stakeholders
Be credible to performers
Be predictive
Increase constructive problem solving around safety
Make it clear what needs to be done to get better
Track Impact versus Intention
