The verdict

CA-04 runs at 13% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Electric power generation, solar workplace, earning a grade A.

CA-04: 0.2 TCR = 13% of Electric power generation, solar BLS 1.2 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

CA-04 safety composite

CA-04 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 42%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

CA-04 held a steady TCR band

CA-04's TCR held near 0.2 from 0.1 in 2017 to 0.3 in 2020. In 2020, DART was 1.13× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

CA-04 (4,525 employees, TCR 0.2) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 208 employees and a TCR of 1.2

CA-04 has more employees than the Electric power generation, solar median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.2. 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.
