The verdict

Beverage Sales runs at 297% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Beer merchant wholesalers workplace, earning a grade F.

Beverage Sales: 6.5 TCR = 297% of Beer merchant wholesalers BLS 2.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Beverage Sales safety composite

Beverage Sales scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% 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).

Grade F

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Louisiana alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #11 safest of 12 Beer merchant wholesalers employers in Louisiana.

Beverage Sales (56 employees, TCR 6.5) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 95 employees and a TCR of 6.4

Beverage Sales has fewer employees than the Beer merchant wholesalers median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 6.4. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
