The verdict

CA Advanced runs at 31% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Pole line construction workplace, earning a grade A.

CA Advanced: 0.9 TCR = 31% of Pole line construction BLS 2.8 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

CA Advanced safety composite

CA Advanced scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 39%), 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).
