Safety Insights for NYBC-Westbury
NYBC-Westbury operates an establishment with approximately 311 full-time equivalent workers in WESTBURY, NY, classified under the Blood banks industry (NAICS 621991). Across 7 years of mandatory OSHA Injury Tracking Application (ITA) reporting, this employer has accumulated 191 recordable injuries, 2 occupational illnesses, and 0 workplace fatalities. The average Total Case Rate (TCR) of 10.2 injuries per 100 full-time workers per year provides the anchor metric for the F letter grade (Failing Safety Record).
Benchmarked against the Bureau of Labor Statistics industry average of 3.8 for Blood banks, NYBC-Westbury's workforce experiences 268% of the typical injury burden. This ratio matters because TCR already normalizes for hours worked — a 200,000-hour exposure base equals roughly 100 full-time workers — so establishments with very different headcounts can be compared directly. A TCR above the benchmark flags a higher-than-typical risk profile for jobseekers, insurers, and enforcement agencies to examine.
Multi-year trend analysis is the single most reliable signal here: a one-year spike could reflect a single severe event, whereas sustained elevation across 7 reporting cycles points to systemic hazard exposure. Readers evaluating NYBC-Westbury as an employer, contractor, investment, or regulatory target should examine the yearly DART rate (days away, restricted, or transferred), the fatality count of 0, and any year-over-year deterioration shown in the table below. All figures come directly from employer-submitted OSHA Form 300A summaries — there is no modeling, estimation, or third-party adjustment layered on top of the government data.

DART Rate — Transparent Calculation (2022)
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.
21 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 512,988 hours worked = 8.19 DART
