The verdict
ARD runs at 17% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical General warehousing and storage workplace, earning a grade A.
ARD: 1.0 TCR = 17% of General warehousing and storage BLS 5.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)
ARD safety composite
ARD scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 90% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
