The verdict

ADESA : Lexington runs at 403% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Automobile and Other Motor Vehicle workplace, earning a grade F.

ADESA : Lexington: 8.9 TCR = 403% of Automobile and Other Motor Vehicle BLS 2.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ADESA : Lexington safety composite

ADESA : Lexington scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 11%), 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).
