Brandman University: 0.4 TCR = 31% of Academies, college or university BLS 1.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Brandman University safety composite

Brandman University scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 92% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).

Brandman University has more employees than the Academies, college or university median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.5.
