Trend analysis for AquaBounty Farms Indiana LLC

Between 2021 and 2023, AquaBounty Farms Indiana LLC's Total Case Rate improved from 30.6 to 22.4 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 27% decrease across 2 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2022, at a TCR of 8.2, while 2021 saw the highest rate, at 30.6, a spread of 22.5 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 3 reporting years, AquaBounty Farms Indiana LLC recorded 26 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 3-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 (2023)

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.

9 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 98,245 hours worked = 18.32 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
