The verdict

APEX runs at 237% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Waste Management workplace, earning a grade F.

APEX: 6.2 TCR = 237% of Waste Management BLS 2.6 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

APEX safety composite

APEX scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 70% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 38%), 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).
