Health and Safety Metrics

Creating a Compelling Case for Change

Mark Wright of FEFO Consulting recently presented at the NSCA Foundation conference in Perth and posed a question that stopped the room:

“Are First Aid and Medical Treatment injury classifications a severity measure, or a method of treatment?” 🤔

First Aid Injuries (FAI) and Medical Treatment Injuries (MTI) tell us how an injury was treated — not how severe it truly was. With 95% of conference participants confirming they still report on these classifications, the industry has a real opportunity to modernise its metrics and focus on indicators that actually drive safer outcomes.

To understand more on making a meaningful shift on health & safety performance reporting refer to our blog titled TRIFR Alternatives to Measure Health & Safety: Enabling Effective Assurance and Due Diligence.

Safety in Design

Transforming Plans into Safe Operations

Super Retail Group has delivered one of Australia’s most advanced automated distribution centres — a 65,000 m² facility designed to accelerate fulfilment, reduce external storage, and uplift safety performance.

Over 24 months, FEFO Consulting supported the project from early concept and Safety in Design through construction, commissioning, and now operations. This end‑to‑end approach ensured risks were eliminated early, engineering controls were embedded, and safety became a seamless part of how the asset operates.
