Trend analysis for City of Wayzata
Between 2017 and 2024, City of Wayzata's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 15.6 to 15.5 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 1% decrease across 7 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2020, at a TCR of 7.8, while 2022 saw the highest rate, at 18.3, a spread of 10.5 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 7 reporting years, City of Wayzata recorded 93 total injuries and illnesses and 1 fatality. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 7-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)
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.
3 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 206,873 hours worked = 2.90 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
