The verdict

Airport runs at 77% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Government workplace, earning a grade B.

Airport: 2.5 TCR = 77% of Government BLS 3.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Airport safety composite

Airport scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 70% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
