Where SRT Aluminum falls in its industry
107 Aluminum ingot, secondary smel establishmentsSafer than 14% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 4.2.
Narrower to Indiana alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #11 safest of 14 Aluminum ingot, secondary smel employers in Indiana.
Trend analysis for SRT Aluminum
Between 2018 and 2019, SRT Aluminum's Total Case Rate improved from 11.3 to 5.4 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 52% decrease across 1 year of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2019, at a TCR of 5.4, while 2018 saw the highest rate, at 11.3, a spread of 5.9 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, SRT Aluminum recorded 17 total injuries and illnesses and 1 fatality. 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 (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.
3 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 223,623 hours worked = 2.68 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
