Trend analysis for bpm London Mill

Between 2016 and 2020, bpm London Mill's Total Case Rate improved from 18.5 to 11.5 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 38% decrease across 4 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2018, at a TCR of 8.6, while 2016 saw the highest rate, at 18.5, a spread of 9.9 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 5 reporting years, bpm London Mill recorded 87 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 5-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 (2020)

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.

6 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 277,555 hours worked = 4.32 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
