ELC - Cosmos: 12.8 TCR = 915% of Elementary and secondary schools BLS 1.4 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ELC - Cosmos safety composite

ELC - Cosmos scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 6%), 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).

ELC - Cosmos has fewer employees than the Elementary and secondary schools 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.
