Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) Calculator
Calculate your Total Recordable Incident Rate for compliance and improvement.
What is the Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) Calculator & How does it work?
The Total Recordable Incident Rate (TRIR) is a key metric used to measure workplace safety. It represents the number of recordable incidents per 100 full-time employees over a specified period, typically one year. This rate helps employers identify areas needing improvement and track their progress in reducing workplace accidents.
To calculate TRIR, you need to know two main pieces of information: the total number of recordable incidents that occurred during the reporting period and the total number of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees working during that same period. The formula for TRIR is:
To calculate TRIR, you need to know two main pieces of information: the total number of recordable incidents that occurred during the reporting period and the total number of full-time equivalent (FTE) employees working during that same period. The formula for TRIR is:
TRIR = left(frac{text{Number of Recordable Incidents}}{text{Total FTE Employees}}right) times 100,000

TRIR = Total Recordable Incident Rate
Number of Recordable Incidents = Total incidents that meet OSHA criteria
Total FTE Employees = Full-time equivalent employees
TRIR = Total Recordable Incident Rate
Number of Recordable Incidents = Total incidents that meet OSHA criteria
Total FTE Employees = Full-time equivalent employees
