Trend analysis for Froedtert Hospital
Between 2017 and 2024, Froedtert Hospital's Total Case Rate improved from 8.6 to 5.6 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 35% decrease across 7 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2023, at a TCR of 4.6, while 2017 saw the highest rate, at 8.6, a spread of 4.0 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 8 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.
Summed across those 8 reporting years, Froedtert Hospital recorded 3,052 total injuries and illnesses and 1 fatality. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 8-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.
225 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 12,601,085 hours worked = 3.57 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
