The World Steel Association (worldsteel) is one of the largest and most dynamic industry associations in the world, with members in every
major steel-producing country. worldsteel represents steel producers, national and regional steel industry associations, and steel research
institutes. Members represent around 85% of global steel production.

Foreword
worldsteel’s safety and health benchmarking is based on

balanced and collective metrics.
Monitoring and reporting on accidents and diseases globally
ensures adequate risk-based prioritisation and focused global
efforts to guarantee the availability of adequate and effective
risk controls. Openness and transparency are key to improving
safety and health in the steel industry.
The safety statistics for 2022 were derived from data provided by
55 organisations, representing 60% of worldsteel members. In
terms of crude steel production coverage, worldsteel collected data
covering 487 Mt of crude steel, corresponding to 26.6% of global
crude steel production.
In terms of general industry performance, this report shows
progress, with lagging indicators reaching record lows. However,
despite this cause for cautious optimism it is important to
recognise that 90 fatalities were reported to worldsteel in 2022. Our
immediate focus needs to remain on the reduction and elimination
of fatalities across our industry.
worldsteel’s position on lagging indicators

(TRIFR), will be kept within the worldsteel reporting framework and

Potential Serious Injuries and Fatalities (PSIF)

A Serious Injury is a permanent impairment or life-altering state, or an injury that, if not
immediately addressed, will lead to death or permanent or long-term impairment.
A Potential Serious injury or Fatality is a near miss incident that could have resulted in
a serious injury or fatality if not for specific barriers or countermeasures or if one factor
around the event had been changed. In 2022, 91% of

The number of individual sites reporting to worldsteel the use of the PSIF framework has increased
in recent years. The figures below only include data from companies/sites reporting PSIFs and
combine contractors and employees.

* In 2022, there were 90 fatalities reported to worldsteel. In order to preserve the ratios within the PSIF section of this report, Fatalities reported by
organisations that were not able to provide PSIF information have been excluded from this analysis.
** All other injuries includes Restricted Work Cases (RWC), Medically Treated Injuries (MTI) and Minor Injuries (MI)
It has been indicated that typically

around 20% of incidents have the
potential to become serious injuries
or fatalities.

and adequate investigation for
near misses and injuries with the
potential to cause fatalities and
serious injuries.
Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR)
Total Recordable Incidents comprise Fatalities (F), Lost Time Injuries (LTI), Restricted Work
Cases (RWC) and Medically Treated Injuries (MTI). In the data survey, restricted work cases
and medically treated injuries are reported separately. Working hours are counted only on
sites that have reported at least one restricted work case or medically treated injury.

Safety pyramids can be used to compare the shape of a company’s incident triangle. In case the
company triangle is narrower, it could mean that not all incidents are reported, or that fatality
prevention requires more attention. It should be noted that the average incident triangle is not
necessarily optimal; it should probably be wider. Reducing the number of more minor incidents
does not directly reduce the probability of severe incidents, but having those reported allows
action to be taken to mitigate risks that might otherwise cause severe incidents.

The table shows the ratio between Lost Time Injuries and Fatalities by
cause. Small ratios mean that per Fatality, there are, on average, only
a small amount of Lost Time Injuries; a big ratio indicates there are
many Lost Time Injuries per Fatality. If these were drawn as an incident
triangle for each cause, the triangles for the small ratios would be very
narrow.

Lost Time Injury (LTI) analysis
Lost Time Injury (LTI). Any work-related injury resulting in the employee or contractor
being unable to return to work for their next scheduled work period. Returning to work
with work restrictions does not constitute a Lost Time Injury status, no matter how
minimal or severe the restrictions, provided it is at the employee’s next scheduled shift.
However, if an Injury deteriorates and time is later lost, an LTI should be recorded. Lost
Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR) is calculated by combining Fatalities (F) and LTIs.
