The verdict

Caro runs at 266% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Vocational Rehabilitation Services workplace, earning a grade F.

Caro: 10.1 TCR = 266% of Vocational Rehabilitation Services BLS 3.8 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Caro safety composite

Caro scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 14%), 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).
