The verdict

EXO runs at 39% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Freight forwarding workplace, earning a grade A.

EXO: 1.8 TCR = 39% of Freight forwarding BLS 4.5 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

EXO safety composite

EXO scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 58% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 21%), 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).
