Injury and Fatality Data Analysis

Industries serviced: Consumer Goods and Retail; Textile, Apparel and Footwear; Toys, Games and Hardlines

An injury is statistically simulated as an event. The probability factor is the likelihood a series of steps-or "critical path"-required for the injury will occur. The numerical probability of each step is calculated based on analysis of trends in historical and empirical data. Thus, the probability of injury reflects the probability of all steps in the path occurring sequentially.

Intertek measures the possible uses for a product against the historical injury/fatality data to determine the risk of injury. Intertek's injury/fatality databases include over 4 million incidents with extensive information on the behavior of children and caregivers and product characteristics that cause injury or fatalities. Injury/fatality data analysis drives the science of safety and is an effective tool for injury prevention.
