The verdict

FED - Spec Ed runs at 541% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical K-12 Education workplace, earning a grade F.

FED - Spec Ed: 7.6 TCR = 541% of K-12 Education BLS 1.4 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

FED - Spec Ed safety composite

FED - Spec Ed scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 18%), 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).
