The verdict

Dowling runs at 432% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Academies, elementary or secondary workplace, earning a grade F.

Dowling: 6.0 TCR = 432% of Academies, elementary or secondary BLS 1.4 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Dowling safety composite

Dowling scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 27%), 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).

Dowling (73 employees, TCR 6.0) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 76 employees and a TCR of 3.8

Dowling has fewer employees than the Academies, elementary or secondary median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.8. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
