The verdict

DFW runs at 25% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical freight forwarding workplace, earning a grade A.

DFW: 1.1 TCR = 25% of freight forwarding BLS 4.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

DFW safety composite

DFW scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
