2008: 3.8 TCR = 112% of All Other General Merchandise Stores BLS 3.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

2008 safety composite

2008 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 55% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 39%), 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).
