Trend analysis for Florence County Council
Between 2018 and 2019, Florence County Council's Total Case Rate improved from 5.1 to 3.9 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 24% decrease across 1 year of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2019, at a TCR of 3.9, while 2018 saw the highest rate, at 5.1, a spread of 1.2 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.
Summed across those 2 reporting years, Florence County Council recorded 58 total injuries and illnesses and 1 fatality. 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 (2019)
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.
9 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 1,818,467 hours worked = 0.99 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
