Grade compares CTL's OSHA Total Case Rate of 4.7 to the Construction engineering services BLS benchmark of 0.5 (930% of benchmark) across 3 years of Form 300A filings (2016–2024). This reflects reported recordable injuries, not an independent safety inspection -- underreporting is a known limitation of employer self-recordkeeping.

Where CTL falls in its industry
1,106 Construction engineering servi establishmentsSafer than 6% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 0.3.
Narrower to Washington alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #23 safest of 26 Construction engineering servi employers in Washington.
Trend analysis for CTL
Between 2019 and 2022, CTL's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 0.0 to 4.6 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 0% change across 3 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2019, at a TCR of 0.0, while 2020 saw the highest rate, at 9.3, a spread of 9.3 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 3 reporting years, CTL recorded 3 total injuries and illnesses and 1 fatality. 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.
Verify This Employer with OSHA
The 3 injuries, and 1 fatality shown on this page for CTL are sourced from its own 3 years of mandatory OSHA Form 300A summaries. Cross-check the underlying establishment record directly against the federal source, name, NAICS classification, recordable case totals, and inspection history are all searchable on OSHA's Establishment-Specific Injury and Illness Data system.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2022)
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 ÷ 43,257 hours worked = 4.62 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping

What this grade means for you
Use this grade as a relative read on CTL's reported OSHA injury record versus its Construction engineering services peers, not a verdict on whether any single site is safe today.
- At 930% of the Construction engineering services benchmark, CTL reports more injuries than typical peers, ask specifically how the employer is reducing them. Know your rights
- Judge this record against the wider Construction engineering services 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.
