Safety performance (LA7)
Tata Steel has taken steps to capture all kinds of injuries including First-aid cases, foreign body in the eye, lost time cases (cases which keep employees away from duty for more than 48 hours) etc. There was a significant reduction in first-aid cases and eye injury cases as indicated in Fig 6.2 & 6.3.

 

Trend of lost time injury cases / Frequency Rate / Severity Rate / Man days Lost Fig. 6.4, 6.5, 6.6 & 6.7 show the various safety performance parameters. For each fatal accident, 6000 man-days loss is considered for calculation.

Corrective and preventive action on identified root causes of incidents:
The existing on-line incident reporting system is effectively being utilized for tracking action on recommendations. An issue, which remains open, gets escalated to the higher management for review. This has led to the capturing of most incidents and a satisfactory level of recommendations being implemented after the incident.
