Background Information
Hale Lua’s safety trend analysis shows a definite decrease in the amount of reportable injuries and
illnesses within the time period of November 2005 to November 2007. From a total of 19 claims in
the time period 11/30/04 to 11/30/05 the trend analysis indicates the majority of injuries can be
attributed to lacerations and sprains/strains. Safety Toolbox meetings were used to address
training on proper lifting techniques and the proper use of personal protection equipment which was
provided the employees. The trend analysis for the time period 11/30/05 to 11/30/06 shows a
remarkable reduction in claims, from 19 claims the previous year to a total of 6 claims. Of these 6
claims, three were of “foreign matter in eyes, ” or eye injuries. Lacerations and sprains were
reduced to just 1 reported claim each and the sixth injury was due to an employee hitting himself in
the foot with a pick. Due to the amount of eye injuries, Hale Lua made it mandatory for all
employees to wear eye protection at all times when on the jobsite. The protective glasses are
provided for by Hale Lua. The last reported time period, from 11/30/06 to 11/30/07, once again
showed an even lower claim rate of just two reported cases. One involved “employee misconduct”
involving smoke irritation to respiratory tract because an individual exposed himself to smoke, by
entering a smoke filled room although he was not a part of the fire watch nor trained to fight a fire.
This employee was given a written warning and received required training on emergency
procedures prior to being returned to work. The other injury occurred when the employee’s finger
got smashed while handling PVC pipe. This injury occurred due to the repetitive job task that was
being done and the failure, by the employee, to pay attention to the tasks being performed.
Employee was wearing proper protective equipment (gloves) but still sustained injuries by the PVC
pipe crushing the fingers against a concrete wall. Overall assessment of trend analysis
demonstrates improvement in the number of reportable injuries and illnesses, and that the accident
prevention program is working and is effective.
