Where Progressive Power Technologies falls in its industry
2,037 Machine shops establishmentsSafer than 3% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 3.1.

Trend analysis for Progressive Power Technologies
Between 2017 and 2019, Progressive Power Technologies's Total Case Rate held roughly steady from 14.0 to 14.6 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 5% increase across 2 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2018, at a TCR of 7.9, while 2019 saw the highest rate, at 14.6, a spread of 6.8 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, Progressive Power Technologies recorded 9 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 (2019)
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.
2 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 54,663 hours worked = 7.32 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
