Starting in 2025, all work-related accidents with at least 1 day off in accordance with ESRS S1–14 are included. In Sweden, from a reportable severity of injury.
- 5)Calculation logic according to GRI 403–9. Number of occupational accidents with at least one day lost per 1 million working hours (= LTIFR).
