injury rates
Accident frequency data
Injury rates measure how frequently injuries occur within a population or activity, typically expressed as incidents per unit of time, participants, or hours of exposure.
Workplace safety tracks injury rates per thousand employees; sports medicine compares injury rates across activities: Running has higher injury rates than swimming.
The metric helps identify hazards and evaluate prevention efforts.
