The verdict

ESS runs at 63% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical home health care workplace, earning a grade B.

ESS: 3.3 TCR = 63% of home health care BLS 5.2 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ESS safety composite

ESS scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 64% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 34%), 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).

ESS (371 employees, TCR 3.3) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 72 employees and a TCR of 4.4

ESS has more employees than the home health care median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.4. 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.
