Course Title:
Calculating TCIR/DART Rates
Course Type:
Workshops
Objective:
This workshop focuses on calculating workplace injury and illness rates, such as total case incidence rate (TCIR) and days away, restricted, and transferred (DART) rates. This workshop:
• Provides the formulas used to calculate rates,
• Shows how to extract information from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Form 300, Log of Work-Related Injuries and Illnesses for rate calculation, and
• Demonstrates how to retrieve published industry average rates for North American Industry Classification System (NAICS) codes through the United States Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
The workshop also shows how to compare workplace rates against BLS industry averages to measure success in the safety and occupational health management system (SOHMS).
Pre-Requisites:
This workshop is beneficial to personnel wanting to learn more about how to calculate workplace injury and illness rates, specifically TCIR and DART rates. Attendees should have a basic understanding of OSHA injury and illness recordkeeping and reporting requirements and mathematic rate calculations prior to this workshop.
Personnel wanting to calculate their own rates during the workshop can bring their OSHA Forms 300 and 300A from the past three years, to include their total work hours for each year and their organization’s NAICS code.
Personnel gaining the most benefit from this presentation may include:
• Safety and Occupational Health (SOH) staff
• SMS points of contact (POCs)
