ROI Fast-Start

You can easily estimate – even specifically calculate – the costs of an ergonomic related injury for your department, division or company. Equipois uses industry reported data to help you plan and view total cost scenarios while easily determining the benefit savings of zeroG™ deployments in your workplace.

Consider spending 2 minutes or less following these simplified, step-by-step entries in order to review your injury cost results and quickly determine how quickly a zeroG system can pay-off for you and your employees. In addition, we offer more customized evaluation scenarios, factoring a range of information unique to your company, which can also be accomplished online through our more comprehensive Equipois ROI Planner.

ROI calculator is based on injury prevention savings and does not include productivity and quality improvements that can be the result of implementing a zeroG arm.

*Average Total Costs incurred per year by type or body part, 2003-2004. Source: National Safety Council, Injury Facts 2007 Edition. Please note that these are estimates based on a sample of Workers Compensation claims reported to NCCI and can be volatile from year to year due to the influence of a small but variable number of large claims.

 

 

Indirect Costs

Indirect costs are a significant portion of the total loss to the company directly stemming from ergonomic related injury. A Liberty Mutual study noted that 40 percent of managers reported that each $1 of direct cost for injury generated between $3 and $5 of indirect costs. With the nature of these indirect costs ranging from 3-5 times (3-5x) the base claim costs, 3x reflects a more conservative injury and baseline average of indirect costs. In more complicated cases and risk scenarios, depending on the extent and nature of the injury, the indirect costs can dramatically rise to levels in the 4-5x range.
