Trend analysis for Conservation Legacy
Between 2019 and 2024, Conservation Legacy's Total Case Rate improved from 15.6 to 13.9 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 11% decrease across 5 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2024, at a TCR of 13.9, while 2019 saw the highest rate, at 15.6, a spread of 1.7 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 4 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.
Summed across those 4 reporting years, Conservation Legacy recorded 319 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 (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.
41 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 1,894,853 hours worked = 4.33 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping

What this grade means for you
Use this grade as a relative read on Conservation Legacy's reported OSHA injury record versus its Natural resource preservation organizations peers, not a verdict on whether any single site is safe today.
- At 702% of the Natural resource preservation organizations benchmark, Conservation Legacy reports more injuries than typical peers, ask specifically how the employer is reducing them. Know your rights
- Judge this record against the wider Natural resource preservation organizations sector, where injury rates vary widely, before comparing it in isolation. See the industry
- Grades reflect 2016–2024 filings; check the latest establishment record straight from OSHA, or look up a different employer. Look up another
Safety grades reflect employers' self-reported OSHA Form 300A filings from 2016 to 2024 and can lag current conditions. A grade is not a guarantee that any specific workplace is safe or unsafe today. See our methodology and disclaimer.
