The verdict

554 runs at 76% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Supermrkts & other grocery stores workplace, earning a grade B.

554: 2.6 TCR = 76% of Supermrkts & other grocery stores BLS 3.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

554 safety composite

554 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
