Trend analysis for Level Five LLC

Between 2020 and 2022, Level Five LLC's Total Case Rate improved from 35.7 to 17.0 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 53% decrease across 2 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2021, at a TCR of 12.2, while 2020 saw the highest rate, at 35.7, a spread of 23.5 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 3 reporting years, Level Five LLC recorded 11 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 (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.

4 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 70,765 hours worked = 11.31 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
