The verdict

Fire Department runs at 61% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Fire and rescue service workplace, earning a grade B.

Fire Department: 1.9 TCR = 61% of Fire and rescue service BLS 3.2 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire Department safety composite

Fire Department scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 95% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).
