The verdict

Fire runs at 368% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Fire Protection workplace, earning a grade F.

Fire: 11.8 TCR = 368% of Fire Protection BLS 3.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire safety composite

Fire scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 39%), 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).
