Version 1: Tracking and analyzing incident and injury data There are many ways to present injury data and trends. The information provided in this tool was used to determine baseline data for measurement of the WSI project activities/interventions and the scope of the target issue (e.g., WPV injuries), within a project facility that is, the what, where, how many, how & cost. WSI facilities reported that this Tool was extremely useful in helping to educate leadership and employees about the need for a WPV prevention program and when reviewing overall safety issues at each facility. 2b. 1
Definitions Definition of Non-Recordable Injuries/Illness i.e. injuries requiring first aid only (called incidents in this report) Using a non-prescription medication at nonprescription strength (for medications available in both prescription and nonprescription form, a recommendation by a physician or other licensed health care professional to use a non-prescription medication at prescription strength is considered medical treatment for recordkeeping purposes) Administering tetanus immunizations (other immunizations, such as Hepatitis B vaccine or rabies vaccine, are considered medical treatment) Cleaning, flushing or soaking wounds on the surface of the skin Using wound coverings such as bandages, Band-AidsTM, gauze pads, etc.; or using butterfly bandages or Steri-StripsTM (other wound closing devices such as sutures, staples, etc., are considered medical treatment) Using hot or cold therapy Using any non-rigid means of support, such as elastic bandages, wraps, non-rigid back belts, etc. (devices with rigid stays or other systems designed to immobilize parts of the body are considered medical treatment for recordkeeping purposes) Using temporary immobilization devices while transporting an accident victim (e.g., splints, slings, neck collars, back boards, etc.) Drilling of a fingernail or toenail to relieve pressure, or draining fluid from a blister Using eye patches Removing foreign bodies from the eye using only irrigation or a cotton swab Removing splinters or foreign material from areas other than the eye by irrigation, tweezers, cotton swabs or other simple means Using finger guards Using massages (physical therapy or chiropractic treatment are considered medical treatment for recordkeeping purposes) Drinking fluids for relief of heat stress Definition of Recordable Injuries/Illness i.e. injuries/illness recorded on the 300 log Covered employers must record all work- fatalities.
