CTS: 4.9 TCR = 174% of Excavating, earthmoving, or land clearing contractors BLS 2.8 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

CTS safety composite

CTS scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 22%), 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).
