The verdict

Eastside runs at 26% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Almond farming workplace, earning a grade A.

Eastside: 1.2 TCR = 26% of Almond farming BLS 4.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Eastside safety composite

Eastside scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 91% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
