Trend analysis for Leeds Precision Instruments

Between 2018 and 2021, Leeds Precision Instruments's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 0.0 to 0.0 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 0% change across 3 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2018, at a TCR of 0.0, while 2018 saw the highest rate, at 0.0, a spread of 0.0 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, Leeds Precision Instruments recorded 0 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 (2021)

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.

0 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 44,883 hours worked = 0.00 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
