Trend analysis for Edison 006
Between 2017 and 2024, Edison 006's Total Case Rate improved from 8.7 to 7.2 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 17% decrease across 7 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2020, at a TCR of 4.7, while 2019 saw the highest rate, at 10.4, a spread of 5.8 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, Edison 006 recorded 61 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)
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.
8 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 276,202 hours worked = 5.79 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
