The verdict

Effingham runs at 102% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Retail workplace, earning a grade C.

Effingham: 3.0 TCR = 102% of Retail BLS 2.9 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Effingham safety composite

Effingham scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 37%), 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).
