The verdict

DC9 runs at 91% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical industry workplace, earning a grade C.

DC9: 5.3 TCR = 91% of industry BLS 5.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

DC9 safety composite

DC9 scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (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).
