The verdict

Electric Production runs at 277% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Electric power generation, fossil fuel (e.g., coal, oil, gas) workplace, earning a grade F.

Electric Production: 3.3 TCR = 277% of Electric power generation, fossil fuel (e.g., coal, oil, gas) BLS 1.2 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Electric Production safety composite

Electric Production scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 16%), 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).

Electric Production has fewer employees than the Electric power generation, fossil fuel ( median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.5. 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.
