How the estimate works

Your inputs determine the cost estimate and risk level.

Planning note: Estimates are for planning and do not guarantee safety or savings. Use your claims and cost data. Indirect costs are excluded.

01
Estimate accident exposureEstimated annual winter incidents × average cost per incident.
02
Determine the risk levelIncident rate, exposed workforce, and incident cost determine the planning level.
03
Model the prevention benefitAccident cost exposure × your selected slip-and-fall reduction rate.
04
Calculate net savingsAvoided incident costs − total ice cleat cost.
