📌 What Is Near Miss Frequency Rate (NMFR)?
The Near Miss Frequency Rate (NMFR) is a key leading indicator in workplace safety. Unlike lagging indicators (injuries, incidents), NMFR helps identify unsafe conditions before they cause accidents.
A higher NMFR often means your workforce is reporting hazards and unsafe acts regularly — which is a positive sign of strong safety culture.
✔ Detect hazards early
✔ Strengthen proactive safety actions
✔ Improve reporting culture
✔ Support ISO 45001, OSHA & client audits
✔ Benchmark safety performance across sites
📘 NMFR Formula
Where:
- Number of Near Misses = Total near-miss events reported
- 1,000,000 = Standardized manhour base
- Total Manhours Worked = Combined labor hours of the workforce
📍 Why NMFR Is Important
Near misses expose hidden risks that haven’t yet caused harm. Tracking NMFR helps safety professionals:
- Prevent future accidents
- Identify repeated unsafe acts
- Strengthen hazard reporting culture
- Improve proactive safety planning
Companies in Oil & Gas, Construction, Manufacturing, EPC, Power Plants and ISO 45001-certified workplaces use NMFR to measure proactive safety performance.
