Trend analysis for Encoder Products Company
Between 2022 and 2024, Encoder Products Company's Total Case Rate improved from 16.3 to 3.1 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 81% decrease across 2 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2024, at a TCR of 3.1, while 2022 saw the highest rate, at 16.3, a spread of 13.2 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, Encoder Products Company recorded 11 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. 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.

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.
2 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 317,275 hours worked = 1.26 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
