Trend analysis for Oregon State Hospital-Salem Campus

Between 2017 and 2024, Oregon State Hospital-Salem Campus's Total Case Rate worsened from 11.9 to 16.9 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 42% increase across 7 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2017, at a TCR of 11.9, while 2022 saw the highest rate, at 37.8, a spread of 25.9 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 8 reporting years, Oregon State Hospital-Salem Campus recorded 2,501 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.

288 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 3,686,039 hours worked = 15.63 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
