The verdict

DFW runs at 90% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical General freight trucking, long-distance, truckload (TL) workplace, earning a grade C.

DFW: 4.0 TCR = 90% of General freight trucking, long-distance, truckload (TL) BLS 4.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

DFW safety composite

DFW scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 35%), 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).
