A brief description of when and why the workplace health and safety baseline was adopted (e.g. in sustainability plans and policies or in the context of other reporting obligations):

The baseline was calculated using the average of 2 years of data for injuries. 2015 there were 51 incidents, 2016 there were 80 incidents. The average was 66. We established a new baseline post 2015 because this is when food service transitioned to in-house with many more employees.

6.67

Number of workplace injuries and occupational disease cases per 100 FTE employees, performance year:
4.96
