Work-related injury frequency rate
France Invest 2026
Total number of work-related injuries, as defined by local jurisdiction, during the reporting year, compared to the total number of hours worked during the reporting period. Injury records could come from national systems as part of a primary data source (e.g., labor inspection records and annual reports; insurance and compensation records; death registers), supplemented by surveys.
For the sake of clarity, note that the following should be excluded:
- COVID cases contracted in the workplace
- Injuries resulting from accidents occuring on the commute to or from the workplace outside of working hours.
Methodology for frequency rate : (Number of work-related injuries * 1 000 000) / (8 * 220 * ETP)
where 8 is the number of hours worked per day and 220 is the number of days worked during the year.
