Cary runs at 211% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Water treatment plant construction workplace, earning a grade F.

Cary: 5.9 TCR = 211% of Water treatment plant construction BLS 2.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Cary safety composite

Cary scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 19%), 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).
