Social AND ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
            
            
              
                Accident at work: a
              
            
            
              
                behavioral analysis
              
            
            
              
                program launched in 2011
              
            
            
              While the frequency rate of accidents has been
            
            
              greatly reduced, their severity has also fallen
            
            
              sharply. The severity rate TG0, which represents
            
            
              the number of days lost as a result of a
            
            
              workplace accident per thousand hours worked,
            
            
              was reduced by 75% since 2005, which reflects
            
            
              on the efficiency of the measures implemented
            
            
              for the protection of the employees. LISI is
            
            
              determined to stay focused and pursue actions
            
            
              that will maintain this trend. Every accident
            
            
              which occurs on one of the LISI sites is the
            
            
              subject of a detailed analysis, in accordance with
            
            
              a rigorous methodology developed by the LISI
            
            
              Group’s Risk Committee. In addition, the General
            
            
              Management of the Group is informed of each
            
            
              workplace accident involving time off work by
            
            
              the Director of the location concerned, thereby
            
            
              confirming that Safety is everyone’s business.
            
            
              Approximately 80% of the accidents occurring
            
            
              within the Group are of behavioral origin. For this
            
            
              reason, in 2011 LISI decided to launch a program
            
            
              to change safety behaviors with the assistance
            
            
              of an external consultant and involving the
            
            
              participation of all employees. This program is
            
            
              based around two principles: the first one deals
            
            
              with conscious unsafe behaviors, and directly
            
            
              concerns the local management. The second one,
            
            
              which focuses on unconscious unsafe behaviors,
            
            
              is reflected by training courses targeted at all
            
            
              employees. Since June 2011, the approach has
            
            
              been initiated on four pilot sites, split between
            
            
              0.3
            
            
              %
            
            
              
                share of worked hours
              
            
            
              
                devoted to “safety and
              
            
            
              
                environment” training
