Step 3Historical WPV Costs & Injury Data

Source from your Workers' Comp reports, Employee Health records, and OSHA 300 Log

OSHA DART Rate Formula: (WPV DART Cases × 200,000) ÷ (Total FTEs × 2,080 hrs) | Healthcare benchmark: 6.8–10.4 per 10,000 FTEs vs. all-industry 1.8 per 10,000 (BLS SOII 2022). Healthcare workers face WPV DART injuries at ~5× the private-sector rate.

WPV DART Cases (Annual) — OSHA 300 Log

Count of WPV cases with days away, restricted duty, or job transfer. Pull from your OSHA 300 Log.

Days Away From Work (Annual)

Total calendar days lost to WPV injuries. Source: Workers' Comp / Employee Health records. HC benchmark: 3.2–12.1 days per 10,000 FTEs (BLS SOII 2022).

Restricted / Modified Work Days (Annual)

Days on modified or light duty due to WPV injuries. Source: Workers' Comp / Employee Health records. HC benchmark: 5.8–18.4 days per 10,000 FTEs (BLS SOII 2022).

Annual WPV-Related WC Claims

Compare to DART cases — a gap may indicate under-reporting.
