The LTIFR refers to the number of lost time injuries occurring in the workplace per 1 million hours worked.
LTIFR is recorded based on a number of lost time injuries occurring in the workplace for every 1 million man-hours
worked. During the previous reporting year, the Group recorded an overall Frequency Rate of 12.39*.
The indicators help us to track the effectiveness of measures taken to improve safety and health performance in
all business divisions. In addition, it helps the Group to identify the most useful preventive action. The table below
indicates the LTIFR, based on the number of days of lost time:

The table indicates that after taking in to account all injuries that occurred during FYE2019, the Group had
recorded an LTIFR of 20.96 lost-time injuries for every 1 million man-hours worked. Nearly half of incidents are
reported by the
Plantation Division
involving injuries resulting from the use of work tools such as machete and
sickles. Others include falling fronds, thorn pricks and injuries related to the handling of FFB.
Last year we had identified some inconsistencies in the computation and definition of lost time injuries in different
parts of the Group. The methodology has now been improved and we will continue to progressively refine our
reporting criteria and enhance our disclosures.
