The verdict

169 runs at 457% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Retail workplace, earning a grade F.

169: 15.5 TCR = 457% of Retail BLS 3.4 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

169 safety composite

169 scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 4%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
