The verdict

Cargill Inc. runs at 66% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Soybean oil, crude, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Cargill Inc.: 2.2 TCR = 66% of Soybean oil, crude, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Cargill Inc. safety composite

Cargill Inc. scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 62% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 37%), 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).
