Trend analysis for The Mochi Ice Cream Company LLC
Between 2020 and 2024, The Mochi Ice Cream Company LLC's Total Case Rate improved from 5.3 to 4.6 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 13% decrease across 4 years of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2024, at a TCR of 4.6, while 2020 saw the highest rate, at 5.3, a spread of 0.7 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, The Mochi Ice Cream Company LLC recorded 19 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)
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.
2 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 218,909 hours worked = 1.83 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
