Safety by the Numbers

Safety isn't just a feeling; it's a metric. The construction industry tracks safety performance using specific formulas to lower insurance rates and, more importantly, save lives.

TRIR (Total Recordable Incident Rate)

The standard benchmark for safety performance.

Formula: (Number of Incidents × 200,000) / Total Hours Worked
The "200,000" represents 100 workers working 40 hours/week for 50 weeks.

The "Fatal Four"

Falls (33% of deaths)

The #1 killer in construction.

  • Prevention: Guardrails, safety nets, and personal fall arrest systems (harnesses) for any height over 6 feet.

Struck-By

Hit by vehicles or falling objects.

  • Prevention: High-visibility vests, hard hats, and designated vehicle paths.
