SHARE – Extension
  • Reaffirms the President’s commitment to Federal worker safety and health
  • Extends the Initiative from FY 2007 through FY 2009
  • Maintains FY 2003 baseline for first three goals
  • Makes minor modifications to goal setting methodology for timely filing of injury notices and reducing lost production days



21
SHARE - Goal 3 Modifications
  • Goal 3
    • Goal setting methodology will remain essentially the same, and continue to use FY2003 agency performance as the baseline
    • 5% improvement per year formula still applies, if it results in a FY2007 goal of 50% or more
    • But all agencies will be required to meet a minimum of 50% timely filing in FY2007, 55% in FY2008 and 60% in FY2009
    • No agency’s goal is required to exceed 95%

22
SHARE - Goal 3 Modifications
23
SHARE - Goal 4 Modifications
  • Goal 4
    • LPD figures revised due to data system change that yields more accurate compilation of lost days data
    • FY2006 outcomes recalculated using this new computation methodology; will be used as the new baseline for LPDs
    • Agencies will continue to target reducing LPDs by at least 1% per year, but now from the FY2006 baseline
    • Agencies with FY2006 baseline LPD rate at or below 15 days must maintain an LPD rate of 15 or less
