Trend analysis for Departmenet of State Hospitals-Patton

Between 2020 and 2021, Departmenet of State Hospitals-Patton's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 35.9 to 37.2 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 4% increase across 1 year of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2020, at a TCR of 35.9, while 2021 saw the highest rate, at 37.2, a spread of 1.3 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.

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 (2021)

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.

625 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 3,540,514 hours worked = 35.31 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
