Safety Insights for Elkay Plumbing Products Company - Freeport
Elkay Plumbing Products Company - Freeport operates an establishment with approximately 33 full-time equivalent workers in FREEPORT, IL, classified under the General warehousing and storage industry (NAICS 493110). Across 6 years of mandatory OSHA Injury Tracking Application (ITA) reporting, this employer has accumulated 3 recordable injuries, 0 occupational illnesses, and 0 workplace fatalities. The average Total Case Rate (TCR) of 1.4 injuries per 100 full-time workers per year provides the anchor metric for the A letter grade (Excellent Safety Record).
Benchmarked against the Bureau of Labor Statistics industry average of 5.8 for General warehousing and storage, Elkay Plumbing Products Company - Freeport's workforce experiences 25% of the typical injury burden. This ratio matters because TCR already normalizes for hours worked — a 200,000-hour exposure base equals roughly 100 full-time workers — so establishments with very different headcounts can be compared directly. A TCR below the benchmark signals that controls, training, or automation may be outperforming peers.
Multi-year trend analysis is the single most reliable signal here: a one-year spike could reflect a single severe event, whereas sustained elevation across 6 reporting cycles points to systemic hazard exposure. Readers evaluating Elkay Plumbing Products Company - Freeport as an employer, contractor, investment, or regulatory target should examine the yearly DART rate (days away, restricted, or transferred), the fatality count of 0, and any year-over-year deterioration shown in the table below.

0 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 57,433 hours worked = 0.00 DART
