The verdict

BLC runs at 262% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Electric power transmission systems workplace, earning a grade F.

BLC: 3.1 TCR = 262% of Electric power transmission systems BLS 1.2 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BLC safety composite

BLC scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 30%), 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).

BLC has more employees than the Electric power transmission systems median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.2. 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.
