Trend analysis for Ryobi Die Casting (USA) INC
Between 2016 and 2023, Ryobi Die Casting (USA) INC's Total Case Rate worsened from 3.0 to 5.2 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 73% increase across 7 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2020, at a TCR of 2.4, while 2023 saw the highest rate, at 5.2, a spread of 2.8 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 7 reporting years, Ryobi Die Casting (USA) INC recorded 194 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 7-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 (2023)
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.
45 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 2,113,826 hours worked = 4.26 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
