Trend analysis for Intracoastal Iron Works

Between 2021 and 2022, Intracoastal Iron Works's Total Case Rate worsened from 20.5 to 37.6 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 83% increase across 1 year of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2021, at a TCR of 20.5, while 2022 saw the highest rate, at 37.6, a spread of 17.1 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 2 reporting years, Intracoastal Iron Works recorded 13 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. 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 (2022)

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.

3 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 117,000 hours worked = 5.13 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
