What is a Lost Time Accident?
An On-the-Job accident which causes a person to be unable to report to work for his or her next scheduled shift.
What is a Serious Injury?
An On-the-Job accident which requires sutures, a work change, a visit to an eye specialist or involves a fracture.
What is Frequency?
Frequency is the number of Lost Time Accidents plus Serious Injuries incurred by employees during 1,000,000 man-hours of work.
e.g. The 1972 Frequency for accidents at the Naugatuck location was 21.4 accidents each 1,000,000 man-hours worked.
Lost Time Accidents (11) + Serious Inuuries (62) x 1,000,000 = 73,000,000
3,404,462 man-hours 3,404,462
= 21.4 accidents per 1,000,000 man-hours worked.
It takes approximately 4 months to accumulate 1,000,000 man-hours.
Disqualification for Las Vegas or Bermuda Trip and Man-hour Drawings.
An employee who suffers a Lost Time Accident or Serious Injury is automatically disqualified from the drawing for the Las Vegas or Bermuda Award if the plant achieves the Frequency Reduction of 9.0.
In addition, an employee will be ineligible for the 500,000 and 1,000,000 man-hours awards if he suffers a Lost Time Accident.
