Introduction
Industrial EHS leaders need reliable, real-time visibility into leading and lagging safety indicators across plants, shifts, and contractors. Parakeet Risk centralizes these metrics into configurable, audit-ready dashboards with automated workflows, alerts, and evidence trails so teams can act faster and prove compliance. See the EHS module at the Parakeet Risk EHS page and the cross-solution view on the Solutions page.

What this dashboard provides
-
Standardized KPI tiles for LTIFR, TRIR, near-miss rate, severity rate, PSIF exposure tracking, CAPA cycle time, audit closure SLAs, and training completion.
-
PSIF watchlist tiles that surface potentially serious injury & fatality exposures before loss events.
-
Mobile-friendly alerts and collaboration via Slack, Microsoft Teams, and WhatsApp, plus remediation tracking in Trello and deadline sync to Google Calendar.
-
Denominator automation (hours worked, headcount) and training status via HRIS integrations; automated reports to Google Docs for audits.
-
Continuous compliance alignment and ISO program support with certification workflows.

KPI definitions (LTIFR/TRIR and more)
Below are standard formulas used in U.S. industrial EHS programs. Bases can be adapted per policy (e.g., per 200,000 hours).
-
LTIFR (Lost Time Injury Frequency Rate): (Lost time cases × 200,000) ÷ Total hours worked.
-
TRIR (Total Recordable Incident Rate): (OSHA recordable cases × 200,000) ÷ Total hours worked.
-
Near-miss rate: (Near-miss events × 200,000) ÷ Total hours worked.
-
Severity rate: (Lost workdays × 200,000) ÷ Total hours worked.
-
PSIF exposure count/rate: Count of identified PSIF exposures (or per 200,000 hours) based on defined exposure criteria.
-
CAPA cycle time: Average calendar days from initiation to verified closure.
-
Audit finding closure rate: % of findings closed within SLA.
-
Training completion: % of assigned, role-based modules completed on time.
Data note: Hours worked and headcount can be auto-synchronized from HRIS/Payroll via ADP, Workday, or BambooHR. Training completion status can also be ingested where available.
Example thresholds and escalation logic
Use values below as illustrative defaults; tune per site risk profile and historical performance. Colors: Green = at/under target; Yellow = watch; Red = action.
| KPI | Formula (base = 200,000 hrs) | Example target | Yellow band | Red threshold | Escalation rule (examples) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TRIR | Recordables × 200,000 ÷ hours | ≤ 1.0 | 1.01–1.5 | > 1.5 | Red for 2 consecutive weeks: notify Site Lead in Slack, auto-create Trello corrective action, escalate to EHS Director if not improving in 14 days. |
| LTIFR | Lost time cases × 200,000 ÷ hours | ≤ 0.3 | 0.31–0.5 | > 0.5 | Immediate WhatsApp alert to Plant Manager; add to Exec weekly in Teams if Red persists 7 days. |
| Near-miss rate | Near-miss × 200,000 ÷ hours | ≥ 4.0 | 2.0–3.99 | < 2.0 | If Red (low reporting) for 30 days: launch awareness campaign task board in Trello; schedule safety walkdowns via Google Calendar. |
| Severity rate | Lost days × 200,000 ÷ hours | ≤ 5 | 5.01–7 | > 7 | Red triggers Rosella brief on top root causes and evidence links, routed to Teams channel. |
| PSIF exposure rate | PSIF exposures × 200,000 ÷ hours | ≤ 0.2 | 0.21–0.4 | > 0.4 | Any Red PSIF auto-blocks task closure until barrier verification; daily Slack digest to EHS. |
| CAPA cycle time | Avg days to closure | ≤ 30 days | 31–45 | > 45 | Red: assign exec sponsor in Trello; weekly WhatsApp reminders to owner; escalate to Ops VP at 60 days. |
| Audit closure SLA | % findings closed on time | ≥ 95% | 90–94% | < 90% | Red triggers cross-functional stand-up invite via Google Calendar and corrective plan in Google Docs. |
| Training completion | % on-time completions | ≥ 98% | 95–97% | < 95% | Red notifies HR and EHS in Teams; overdue learners receive Slack DMs; report sent to Plant Manager weekly. |

PSIF watchlist tiles (how to configure)
A PSIF watchlist highlights high-potential severity exposures before loss. Configure tiles that:
-
Filter open hazards and incidents tagged with “potential SIF” or mapped to critical risk categories (e.g., energy isolation, working at height, confined space).
-
Apply barrier logic to surface items lacking verified critical controls (e.g., LOTO verification not attached; contractor permit not validated).
-
Boost priority by recency and exposure frequency; de-prioritize after barrier verification is uploaded and approved.
-
Auto-create Trello actions for missing barriers and send immediate Slack/Teams alerts for any PSIF exceeding 24 hours without mitigation.
Background capabilities: customizable dashboards and evidence tracking are described on EHS Control Center and Features.
Mobile alerts, collaboration, and field follow-up
-
Real-time alerts: route critical thresholds to teams via Slack, Teams, and WhatsApp for fast acknowledgement and coordination.
-
Action tracking: Parakeet can auto-generate Trello cards with owners, due dates, and checklists; updates sync back to maintain an auditable trail.
-
Deadlines and audits: publish audits, inspections, and safety meetings to Google Calendar and generate reports in Google Docs.
Continuous compliance alignment
-
Maintain audit readiness with continuous monitoring and incident orchestration: see Continuous Compliance.
-
Accelerate ISO 45001/14001/9001 programs with playbooks, controls, and evidence automation: see ISO Certification Automation.

Implementation checklist in Parakeet
1) Connect data: integrate HRIS/Payroll (ADP, Workday, BambooHR) and collaboration tools (Slack, Teams, Trello). 2) Define denominators and bases: set hours-worked sources and 200,000-hour base; include contractors per policy. 3) Map KPI formulas: select LTIFR/TRIR/near-miss/severity/CAPA/audit/training; set site and enterprise targets. 4) Configure PSIF taxonomy: define critical risks and barrier checks; enable watchlist tiles and daily digests. 5) Build escalation rules: thresholds to alerts, owners, and SLAs; add calendar invites and document templates. 6) Automate evidence: configure Google Docs report generation and attach supporting artifacts to findings and CAPAs. 7) Validate and go live: pilot with one site, review with EHS leadership, then scale across plants.
