recordable injuries tracked

Grade compares HSI Sensing's OSHA Total Case Rate to the BLS industry benchmark across 3 years of Form 300A filings (2016–2024). This reflects reported recordable injuries, not an independent safety inspection -- underreporting is a known limitation of employer self-recordkeeping.

Trend analysis for HSI Sensing

Between 2016 and 2019, HSI Sensing's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 2.5 to 2.4 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 3% decrease across 3 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2018, at a TCR of 1.5, while 2016 saw the highest rate, at 2.5, a spread of 1.0 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 3 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.

Summed across those 3 reporting years, HSI Sensing recorded 10 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 (2019)

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.

3 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 331,279 hours worked = 1.81 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping

What this grade means for you

Use this grade as a relative read on HSI Sensing's reported OSHA injury record, strong versus its Switches for electronic applications manufacturing peers, but not a guarantee about any single site today.

At 65% of the Switches for electronic applications manufacturing benchmark, HSI Sensing reports fewer injuries than typical peers, still worth asking how safety is managed day to day. Know your rights
