Do you know when and where injury frequency rates, like TRIFR, began?
No, I mean like, the precise year and article it was first mentioned in publication?
In this episode, Kevin Geddert discusses his fascinating PhD research and historical deep dive into the history of injury measures, showing it dates back at least 100 years in documented form.
And, importantly, the limitations of these frequency rates also date back to the same time. Our pioneers warned of the issues we’re still slow to learn 100 years later.
Across parts 1 and 2, Kevin also discusses his research highlighting the selective and biased incident reporting structures in place within organisations, and more.
