The verdict

Construction runs at 79% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Masonry contractors workplace, earning a grade B.

Construction: 2.2 TCR = 79% of Masonry contractors BLS 2.8 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Construction safety composite

Construction scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

Construction has fewer employees than the Masonry contractors median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.9. 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.
