This guide explains how to create the lag indicators you want to track in Safe365. Lag indicators record what has already happened in your business, for example injury or incident counts, lost time, days since a recordable event, or your own internal measures. You create each indicator once, define what it measures and the unit it is recorded in, then record values against it over time. Every indicator you create becomes available to plot on the change over time graph.

This helps tell and show your Safety Culture Maturity story, with Maturity increasing and harm reducing over time.
