Trend analysis for J & J Snack Foods Holly Ridge
Between 2023 and 2024, J & J Snack Foods Holly Ridge's Total Case Rate improved from 1.5 to 1.0 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 35% decrease across 1 year of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2024, at a TCR of 1.0, while 2023 saw the highest rate, at 1.5, a spread of 0.5 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, J & J Snack Foods Holly Ridge recorded 3 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.

1 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 201,852 hours worked = 0.99 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
