The verdict

Bus Garage runs at 77% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Bus operation, school and employee workplace, earning a grade B.

Bus Garage: 3.5 TCR = 77% of Bus operation, school and employee BLS 4.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Bus Garage safety composite

Bus Garage scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 61% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 13%), 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 B

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Illinois alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #41 safest of 110 Bus operation, school and empl employers in Illinois.

Bus Garage (60 employees, TCR 3.5) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 74 employees and a TCR of 4.3

Bus Garage has fewer employees than the Bus operation, school and employee median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.3. 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.
