Trend analysis for Seaway Plastics Engineering LLC
Between 2020 and 2024, Seaway Plastics Engineering LLC's Total Case Rate improved from 1.3 to 0.9 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 31% decrease across 4 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2024, at a TCR of 0.9, while 2020 saw the highest rate, at 1.3, a spread of 0.4 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a comparatively narrow spread, suggesting a fairly consistent safety record across the 2 years with a usable rate on file, rather than one outlier year skewing the multi-year average.
Summed across those 2 reporting years, Seaway Plastics Engineering LLC recorded 4 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 (2024)
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 ÷ 441,862 hours worked = 0.45 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping

What this grade means for you
Use this grade as a relative read on Seaway Plastics Engineering LLC's reported OSHA injury record, strong versus its Molds for forming materials (e.g., glass, plastics, rubber) manufacturing peers, but not a guarantee about any single site today.
- At 34% of the Molds for forming materials (e.g., glass, plastics, rubber) manufacturing benchmark, Seaway Plastics Engineering LLC reports fewer injuries than typical peers, still worth asking how safety is managed day to day. Know your rights
- Judge this record against the wider Molds for forming materials (e.g., glass, plastics, rubber) manufacturing sector, where injury rates vary widely, before comparing it in isolation. See the industry
- Grades reflect 2016–2024 filings; check the latest establishment record straight from OSHA, or look up a different employer. Look up another
Safety grades reflect employers' self-reported OSHA Form 300A filings from 2016 to 2024 and can lag current conditions. A grade is not a guarantee that any specific workplace is safe or unsafe today. See our methodology and disclaimer.
