The Total Case Incidence Rate (TCIR) shows the number of recordable incidents per 100 full-time employees during a given time period. In 2011, Georgia-Pacific had the lowest incidence rate in the company's history. According to data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, GP’s incidence rate ranked in the top quartile for safety performance among all industries, as well as the paper and wood products manufacturing industries.
Days Away/Restricted or Transfer Rate
| 2009 | 0.91 |
|---|---|
| 2010 | 0.83 |
| 2011 | 0.73 |
Days Away/Restricted or Transfer Rate (DART) indicates the number of injuries and illnesses per 100 full-time employees over a given time frame that resulted in days away from work, restricted work activity and/or a job transfer. Lower rates show that the severity of workplace injuries is decreasing.
Lost Time Incidence Rate
| 2009 | 0.62 |
|---|---|
| 2010 | 0.50 |
| 2011 | 0.44 |
The Lost Time Incidence Rate indicates the number of injuries and illnesses per 100 full-time employees over a given time frame that resulted in days away from work. These incidents represent the most severe cases of injury, so lower rates mean fewer severe workplace injuries.
Near Misses
| 2009 | 10910 |
|---|---|
| 2010 | 17659 |
| 2011 | 16980 |
Near Misses reflect instances when an employee could have been hurt but was not. Increased near-miss reporting reflects better identification of potential hazards on the job so accidents can be prevented.
