Total Recordable Case Rate (TRCR)

Many recordable cases without lost time also have potential to lead to lost time. Therefore 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 TRCR equals the division of all recordable cases by the hours worked, multiplied by 200'000 for standardization. In 2007, the first year of reporting for this indicator, the Novartis Group TRCR was 1.41. The performance of the TRCR during 2008 will be used as base-line for further target setting.
