Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate (LTIFR)

LTIFR1

Lost-time injury frequency rate (LTIFR) per million hours worked (single bar)

1 The key figure includes the METRO/MAKRO national subsidiaries. The FSD companies are not yet included for reasons of data availability, among others.

Definition: The LTIFR captures the number of incidents with at least 1 missed day of work (not including the day of the incident) per 1 million hours worked. Fatalities and cases of permanent sick leave or disability are likewise included, whereas accidents while commuting are not.

Explanation: Safety is always a top priority for METRO. Our operational safety strategy aims to raise awareness among employees that each individual bears responsibility for operational safety and contributes to eliminating and avoiding hazards. This is supported by a transparent group-wide reporting system in which we document all incidents, near misses and non-conformities.
