Trend analysis for Sea Life Orlando

Between 2016 and 2017, Sea Life Orlando's Total Case Rate improved from 15.5 to 4.9 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 68% decrease across 1 year of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2017, at a TCR of 4.9, while 2016 saw the highest rate, at 15.5, a spread of 10.6 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 2 reporting years, Sea Life Orlando recorded 13 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 2-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 (2017)

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.

1 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 162,579 hours worked = 1.23 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
