Safety and Health Data Report 2023 Overview

Introduction

• The World Steel Association represents about 85% of global steel production. Data for 2022 was collected from 55 organizations, covering 26.6% of global crude steel output.
• Openness and transparency are vital for improving safety. Key issues include unreliable lagging indicators like TRIFR for cross-comparison and the need for better process safety metrics.

Potential Serious Injuries and Fatalities (PSIF)

• PSIF includes events leading to serious injury or fatality. PSIF framework adoption increased in 2022.
• 2022 Fatalities: 90 reported; deaths from contractors rose 21% (0.029% to 0.020% FFR).
• Top PSIF causes: Slipping, trips, falls; manual tasks/tools; moving machinery; handling/storing products; heights.

Total Recordable Injury Frequency Rate (TRIFR)

• TRIFR decreased to 3.66 in 2022. Numbers vary by region and contractor vs. employee.
• TRIFR limitations: effects of hours worked and inconsistent definitions prevent meaningful sector comparisons.

Lost Time Injury (LTI) Analysis

• LTIFR dropped from 8.54 to 0.65. Primary causes: Slipping/tripping/falling, manual tasks/tools, moving machinery, handling storage, height falls.
• Contractor LTIs increased relatively; their systems need improvements for injury prevention.

Fatality Analysis

• Fatal events in 2022: Top causes over 10 years include falling height, moving machinery, on-site vehicles, falling objects, and gassing/asphyxiation.
• Contractors had more fatal events than employees, reflecting role-based risks.

Process Safety Management (PSM)

• PSM covers preventing disastrous events (e.g., explosions, fires); matureness analysis showed improvements but needs metric development for benchmarking.
• Key process safety issues: fires, explosions, chemical releases linked to inadequate inspection/maintenance.

Sickness Absence

• Absence rates vary: Europe (5.59% in 2022) and CIS (2.33%) highest regions; lower rates in Asia/Pacific or Africa.

The report highlights progress but stresses the need for enhanced transparency, better injury tracking, and increased focus on high-risk activities to reduce fatalities and severities.
