The verdict

Buffalo runs at 223% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade F.

Buffalo: 5.8 TCR = 223% of industry BLS 2.6 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Buffalo safety composite

Buffalo scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 19%), 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).

Where Buffalo falls in its industry

158 industry establishments

Safer than 19% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 2.3.

Grade F

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to New York alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #15 safest of 15 industry employers in New York.

Buffalo (63 employees, TCR 5.8) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 176 employees and a TCR of 2.3

Buffalo has fewer employees than the industry median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.3. 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.
