The verdict

ALDEN runs at 96% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Grocery Stores workplace, earning a grade C.

ALDEN: 3.3 TCR = 96% of Grocery Stores BLS 3.4 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ALDEN safety composite

ALDEN scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 72% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 26%), 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).
