Trend analysis for Matson Navigation Company of Alaska LLC Anchorage

Between 2016 and 2024, Matson Navigation Company of Alaska LLC Anchorage's Total Case Rate improved from 11.6 to 6.6 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 43% decrease across 8 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2024, at a TCR of 6.6, while 2016 saw the highest rate, at 11.6, a spread of 5.0 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 8 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.

Summed across those 8 reporting years, Matson Navigation Company of Alaska LLC Anchorage recorded 96 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 8-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 (2024)

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.

10 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 333,913 hours worked = 5.99 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
