Underreporting in safety hides weak signals when dashboards reward clean numbers more than honest reporting, supervisor escalation, and control repair.
Corrective action closure proves little unless EHS can show that controls changed, exposure fell, and leaders verified the result in the field.
An executive safety dashboard should move beyond TRIR and show whether serious exposure, control weakness, reporting trust, and leadership action are changing.

DART rate helps compare injury impact, but leaders must pair it with SIF potential, speak-up data, and corrective-action quality.
Low TRIR can hide serious-risk drift. Use these seven leading indicators to expose weak controls, silent reporting and dashboard blind spots.
