Work-related accident statistics are presented using two indicators: Frequency Rate and Severity Rate, together with the number of lost workdays.

・Frequency Rate
The frequency rate represents the number of fatalities or injuries resulting from work-related accidents per one million actual working hours.

[ Formula ]
Frequency Rate = (Number of fatalities and injuries due to work-related accidents ÷ Total working hours) × 1,000,000

（Note）
Numerator: If the same person has multiple work related accidents, each accident is counted separately.
Denominator: Total working hours include regular and overtime hours; vacation, sick leave, and holidays are excluded.

・Severity Rate
The severity rate represents the severity level of accidents, calculated based on the number of lost workdays per 1,000 actual working hours.
Formula: Severity Rate = (Number of lost workdays ÷ Total actual working hours) × 1,000

【Formula】
Severity Rate = (Number of lost workdays due to work-related accidents ÷ Total working hours) × 1,000

（Note）
Numerator: Lost workdays are counted as calendar days the employee is unable to work starting from the day after the incident.
Denominator: Total working hours include regular and overtime hours; vacation, sick leave, and holidays are excluded
