However some of the common objectives which can be taken are as follows.
1. Reduction in Accident Frequency rate from---- to ----
2. Reduction in accident severity rate from ------ to ----
3. Reduction in noise from -- dBA to ---- ( In case noise exposure is hazard beyond acceptable level)
4. Training to employees --- mandays / employee / year

You can wait for other members replies.

Dear Seniors.
The objective of Mr. Sudhir is highly relevant.
