The verdict

Boston runs at 7% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Law Firm workplace, earning a grade A.

Boston: 0.2 TCR = 7% of Law Firm BLS 3.4 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Boston safety composite

Boston scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 100% 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).
