Impact (environmental)
A change to the environment, whether adverse or beneficial, wholly or partially resulting from an organization's activities, products or services.
Injury/illness rate
The calculation for the injury/illness rate is based on the number of recordable occupational injury/illness cases multiplied by 200,000 then divided by the hours worked for the same time period in which the injuries occurred. For example, if you had two injuries in a quarter and 50,000 hours worked, then the calculation would be:
2 x 200,000/50,000 = 8.0 injury/illness rate.
ISEF

ISO 14001
An international standard issued by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) relating to environmental management systems.
Kilowatt-hour
1 kilowatt-hour = 3.6 x 106 joules = 3.6 x 10-3 gigajoules.
LEDs
Light-emitting diodes.
Lost workday case
Recordable cases involving lost workdays beyond date of injury (more serious injury/illness).
Lost workday case rate
The lost workday case rate provides information on the number of occupational lost workday injury/illness cases multiplied by 200,000 then divided by the hours worked for the same time period in which the injuries occurred. For example, if you had one lost workday injury/illness case in a quarter and 50,000 hours worked, then the calculation would be:
1 x 200,000/50,000 = 4.0 lost workday case rate.
