Each year, we aim to achieve a zero employee Innospec Reportable Lost Time Accident (IRLTA) Frequency Rate. As a minimum acceptable standard, our target is to continue to perform better than the industry average for the UK Chemical sector. At the end of 2018, we had an employee IRLTA Frequency Rate of 0.05 per 100,000 hours, which was significantly better than the industry average of 0.21 and an improvement on our 2017 performance of 0.14.
We have developed a comprehensive reporting and investigation system to ensure that we can quickly and efficiently establish the causes of any accidents, incidents and near misses, and are able to take effective corrective action.
