No. Injury Hotspots are a measure of frequency not severity. Each hotspot shows the proportion of claims for injuries to that area of the body, and does not take into account the severity of the injury or the time taken for recovery. For more detailed information on different types of injury visit the Health and Safety Topics section of the WorkSafe website.
