Question One: Calculate the total benefit expected for this proposed engineering control. Show your calculations.

A proposed engineering control is expected to cut the accident rate by 40 percent for a given process that was recently cited as being out of compliance by an OSHA inspector. Auditors have estimated cost data for accidents with this process as follows (average cost per accident):

Expenses

Direct Cost

Hidden Cost

Frequency per year

First aid cases

1000$

4000$

6

Med. treatment cases

6000$

9000$

1.5

Lost time cases

3000$

50000$

0.5

No-injury cases

0

2000$

5

Grand Total

10000$

65000$

Total Cost (Direct and Hidden)

75000$

The proposed project will save around 40 percent of the total cost, thus it will save aroung 30000 per year.
