Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
How much does accidental loss cost one's organization? Figures show that it can amount to between 8 and 36 times the total insurance bill. The research reported in this publication was carried out by HSE's Accident Prevention Advisory Unit with the help of industrial firms. It gives detailed results of five comprehensive studies to measure all accidental loss over 13 to 18 week periods. The costing methodology used in the studies is explained and the recording forms reproduced - so that companies can use them to develop a system to measure their own accidental losses.
Includes bibliographical references: (pages 29-30).
