Risk Management Data
This is in a « TDB » / reporting pack and is under the Risk Management section.
There is:
Taux de gravité glissant
Taux de fréquence glissant
Both are followed by the data per month for a year period. I presume that “glissant” just spread over a period? I wondered if “gravité” was an indicator for the level of seriousness, but wanted to check if out with somebody who knows the field. Thanks

rolling severity rate
"Glissant" , as a little research will show, usually means "rolling" in this type of instance – in your case, covering a one-month rolling period.

polyglot45
: apread over a period is not sufficiently precise - glissant = rolling/sliding, in other words as time moves on the period rolls/slides forward with it

Tony M
: 'spread over' would not be right in this very specific technical context; as Rob has said, it is normally rendered as 'rolling'

| Thanks a lot for your help Sandra. To Writeaway - this reference is English - English so it's not something that I would have found myself as I don't know the English term! |
