The above accident/injury frequency rates are presented for 2021 and 2022 without JSC Electromagistral, JSC Energetik and JSC RES. For 2023, the work-related accident frequency rate takes into account accidents at JSC Electromagistral, JSC Energetik, and JSC RES since their merger with the Rosseti Group (November 2023).
