The verdict

ADESA : Boston runs at 318% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Automobile and Other Motor Vehicle workplace, earning a grade F.

ADESA : Boston: 7.0 TCR = 318% of Automobile and Other Motor Vehicle BLS 2.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ADESA : Boston safety composite

ADESA : Boston scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 10%), 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).
