So, if I invest in Fall protection for my company at a cost of $10,000, and for the purposes of calculation, you determine if it saves that company 10% of it's fall- related WC claims annually, the annual benefit would be around $3,000 annually, what would you project your ROI to be? (one best answer) 30% 10% $3,000 I don't need to calculate the ROI, because it is required by law.
