Summed across those 3 reporting years, Carvana Blue Mound recorded 60 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 (2024)
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.
18 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 617,747 hours worked = 5.83 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
