> If they double their output and injury rates go up by 1.1x times, then that is pretty successful.
Again, I don't buy that increasing output by default means increasing injury rates at all is acceptable. :(
There's just not enough info in these theoretical examples, and neither of us are experts in the domain.
For example, are they doubling the output with the same # of staff (eg increased automation path), or by ~doubling the number of workers?
If it's by doubling the number of workers, then you might be right. But if they're using increased automation without increasing worker count, then an increased # of injuries would by pretty shitty.
