Trend analysis for City Bus Garage (Transit)

Between 2023 and 2024, City Bus Garage (Transit)'s Total Case Rate worsened from 16.1 to 17.2 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 7% increase across 1 year of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2023, at a TCR of 16.1, while 2024 saw the highest rate, at 17.2, a spread of 1.1 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 2 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.

Summed across those 2 reporting years, City Bus Garage (Transit) recorded 9 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 2-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.

1 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 58,063 hours worked = 3.44 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
