The verdict

Bedford runs at 71% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical transportation workplace, earning a grade B.

Bedford: 3.2 TCR = 71% of transportation BLS 4.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Bedford safety composite

Bedford scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 68% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 25%), 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).
