Hazard control
“The fundamental challenge for those with safety responsibilities in an organization is to teach workers how to recognize workplace hazards and to understand the potential consequences. When workers recognize hazards and understand the consequences they have the information needed to apply control measures in order to avoid incidents and injuries.”

In the safety community there are sometimes great debates over what is the most effective way to measure safety performance. While lag indicators show the results of safety performance after the fact by tracking the number of injuries and incidents that have occurred, lead indicators report on the success of safety program activities.
