The cost of a production stoppage.
The calculation that changes everything.

A medical incident handled within minutes stays an incident; a late response becomes a stoppage. Here is how to put a number on it, and why every minute counts.

The basic calculation

Hourly cost of a stoppage = lost hourly revenue + wages of idle teams + contractual penalties + restart costs.

Hidden costs

Investigation, zone shutdown, delayed deliveries, reputation with clients and authorities, absences after the incident.

Why minutes matter

An employee reached in under 3 minutes and stabilised on site is an incident that stays an incident. Every minute saved shortens the zone's downtime. Learn more →
