Targets and objectives
The metrics we use to measure health and safety performance are as follows:
Metric

Total Recordable Case Frequency Rate (TRCFR)
At least 10% improvement from 2003 performance
SHE training rate (days/employee)
Training carried out as required. No specific target.
Number of enforcement actions
0
No of reportable cases of occupational ill-health
0
Sickness absence rate
Improvement from 2003
Percentage of employees working within an OHSAS 18001 compliant Health and Safety Management System
Improvement from 2003
Incident Data
Accidents to sub-contractors are included within the statistics where AMEC had direct sub-contractors performing work under its control or where it had general supervisory authority over the worksite.
Incident Frequency Rates
AMEC has adopted OSHA (the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration) standards for the calculation of frequency rates for Lost Time Incidents and Total Recordable Cases.
SHE Training Rate
AMEC's SHE management framework requires all business units to identify the SHE training required at each level and function within the business and to monitor the achievement of the required training. The SHE training rate is one way of monitoring this, by calculating the number of days of SHE training received per employee across the business.
For the purposes of this indicator, "SHE training" includes all training primarily carried out for establishing SHE competence but does not include induction training and toolbox talks.
Enforcement Actions
Monitoring enforcement actions provides information on specific failures in our management of health and safety. We ensure appropriate improvement action is taken and communicate information on enforcement actions to ensure lessons are learned across the company.
