During 2008, a total of 1,019 associates suffered work related injuries. Of these, 320 (2007:369) led to days off work (integrated into the LTIR). The distribution of injuries by immediate cause indicates that the most prominent safety issues are related to non-operational activities, such as slips, trips and falls at offices and sites, and transport accidents within the sales force, which together accounted for 59% of occupational injuries with lost time.
