The verdict

Far 04 runs at 129% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade D.

Far 04: 4.4 TCR = 129% of industry BLS 3.4 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Far 04 safety composite

Far 04 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 17%), 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).
