The verdict

Construction runs at 253% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Painting and wallpapering workplace, earning a grade F.

Construction: 7.1 TCR = 253% of Painting and wallpapering BLS 2.8 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Construction safety composite

Construction scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 76% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 17%), 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).
