The verdict

COTS runs at 539% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Homeless shelters workplace, earning a grade F.

COTS: 20.5 TCR = 539% of Homeless shelters BLS 3.8 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

COTS safety composite

COTS scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 0%), 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).
