Trend analysis for Solid-Employees LLC

Between 2019 and 2021, Solid-Employees LLC's Total Case Rate improved from 31.1 to 27.4 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 12% decrease across 2 years of OSHA reporting.

The safest year on record was 2021, at a TCR of 27.4, while 2019 saw the highest rate, at 31.1, a spread of 3.8 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, Solid-Employees LLC recorded 75 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 (2021)

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.

24 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 189,843 hours worked = 25.28 DART

Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
