Health and Safety Performance Measurement Webinar with Mark Wright

Health and Safety Performance Measurement Webinar with Mark Wright

Join an exclusive professional session focused on important issues affecting Occupational Health and Safety, Injury Management, Risk Management, and Workplace Safety professionals.

Topic: Measuring Health and Safety Performance: Is Your Due Diligence and Assurance Effective?

Guest Speaker: Mark Wright
Managing Director, FEFO and the Health & Safety Index

For decades, organisations have relied on injury numbers, frequency rates, and incident classification systems to measure workplace health and safety performance. However, serious injuries, major incidents, and catastrophic events continue to occur—even in organisations reporting strong safety statistics.

This session will challenge traditional approaches to HSE performance measurement and explain how conventional safety metrics can create false confidence, distort risk perception, and influence poor decision-making at management, executive, and board levels.

Using a real-world case study, Mark Wright will explore how organisations can improve safety assurance by changing the way health and safety performance is measured.

Key Topics

• Why injury classifications should not be used as a direct measure of workplace risk
• Moving from injury frequency rates to potential consequence measurement
• Measuring the effectiveness and reliability of critical controls
• Evaluating control strength instead of relying on the absence of incidents
• Looking beyond personal safety and Serious Injury and Fatality metrics
• Improving Critical Risk Management performance
• Moving from static safety KPIs to outcome-focused OKRs
• Strengthening executive and board-level health and safety due diligence
• Using safety performance data to support investment and resource allocation
• Improving leadership accountability and risk-based decision-making

This session is not about introducing more dashboards, leading indicators, or complicated reporting systems. It focuses on changing the logic behind safety measurement so that performance indicators genuinely support risk prioritisation, critical control assurance, leadership behaviour, and the prevention of serious harm.
