During 2002, the average lost time accident
rate in Stora Enso was 24.0 per 106 worked hours (4.0
per 100 employees), somewhat lower than in 2001 (26.5/106
hrs; 4.5/100 employees).
For all workplace accidents, the rate was 52.5 per 106 worked hours
and 8.7 per 100 employees. In 2001, this rate was 53.6 per 106 worked
hours (9.1 per 100 employees). From 2002 onwards accident rates
of the sales offices are included in corporate statistics.
Safety performance and accident rates varied between different units
and operations, and there were also noticeable country-specific
differences in average accident rates. At North American mills,
the rates were generally lower than in most European units. Action
has been taken to encourage units to learn from best practices in
accident prevention, and a special focus has been put on units with
low safety performance.
