Trend analysis for 6164-PATERSON

Between 2016 and 2021, 6164-PATERSON's Total Case Rate worsened from 9.3 to 10.7 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 15% increase across 5 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2019, at a TCR of 7.3, while 2020 saw the highest rate, at 18.0, a spread of 10.7 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a wide swing relative to the establishment's overall rate, worth checking the year-by-year table below for whether a single severe year is driving the average, rather than a sustained trend.

Summed across those 6 reporting years, 6164-PATERSON recorded 1,538 total injuries and illnesses and 4 fatalities. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 6-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2021)

What is the DART rate formula?

DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.

172 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 6,674,931 hours worked = 5.15 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
