Dear Aites,

Warm welcome to our citehr EHS form. Nice to heard some of your friend adviced you to join in our citehr EHS forum its shows us where we are now.

First of all thanks to you bringing new topic in our forum. Hope you will actively participate in our forum.

First you want to know what is Leading & Lagging Indicators?

Leading indicators are activities that should be trended as they predict the outcomes (i.e., lagging indicators). Quotas or goals should only be placed on lagging indicators and never on leading indicators. Placing a goal on a leading indicator will result in gaming and generate the

wrong results.

Definition-Measures that “drive” or lead to the performance of lag measures; normally measuring intermediate processes and activities.

Examples:

• Average Speed of Answer (ASA)

• Average Handle Time (AHT)

• First Contact Resolution (FCR)

• Number of contacts

Advantages:

• Predictive in nature and allows the organization to make adjustments based on results

Challenges:

• May prove difficult to identify and capture; often new measures with no history within the organization

Lagging Indicator

Definition- Measures focusing on results at the end of a time period, normally characterizing historical performance. Also referred to as Key Results Indicator (KRI)

Examples:

• Total Customer Contacts

• Total Incidents

• Total Problems

Advantages:

• Normally easy to identify and capture

Challenges:

• Historical in nature and does not reflect current activities

• Lacks predictive power

Leading vs. Lagging Indicators

As our terminology evolves in the support center, when we are taking about leading indicators, we are really talking about performance indicators. When we are talking about lagging indicators, we are really talking about Key Results Indicators (KRIs). It is important to emphasize that goals and objectives should be based on lagging indicators whenever possible.

Setting Goals on Lagging Indicators

When setting goals, be aware that goals will drive behaviors. Think of how you want to drive those desired behaviors. When you develop the processes and the metrics that will help to measure their success, also develop a list of behaviors that you want your support analysts to

exhibit. If you identify and document the desired behavior, it becomes the basis for the behavior.

Dear All pl z tell me why safety performance is being count in millions per hours and why not in billion or thousand regards, Shashikant

Please read about Six Sigma at What Is Six Sigma?
I am not sure if you have framed your question right!
"The statistical representation of Six Sigma describes quantitatively how a process is performing. To achieve Six Sigma, a process must not produce more than 3.4 defects per million opportunities. A Six Sigma defect is defined as anything outside of customer specifications. A Six Sigma opportunity is then the total quantity of chances for a defect. Process sigma can easily be calculated using a Six Sigma calculator."
Have a nice day.
