Total Recordable Case Rate (TRCR)

Many injury and illness cases without lost time have potential to lead to lost time. So identifying and managing the circumstances in which these incidents occur ultimately reduces the overall number of lost time injuries and illnesses.

A recordable case includes the following:

  • Work related injury with or without lost time
  • Work related illness with or without lost time
  • Work related fatality

The Total Recordable Case Rate (TRCR) equals the division of all recordable cases by the hours worked, multiplied by 200'000 for standardization. In 2008, the Novartis Group TRCR was 1.08, down from 1.41 in 2007.
