Trend analysis for Canoo Corporate Headquarters
Between 2018 and 2021, Canoo Corporate Headquarters's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 0.0 to 0.3 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 0% change across 3 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2018, at a TCR of 0.0, while 2019 saw the highest rate, at 2.2, a spread of 2.2 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 4 reporting years, Canoo Corporate Headquarters recorded 7 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 4-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)
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.
2 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 1,370,880 hours worked = 0.29 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
