The verdict

Fire Department runs at 52% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Other General Government Support workplace, earning a grade B.

Fire Department: 1.7 TCR = 52% of Other General Government Support BLS 3.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire Department safety composite

Fire Department scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 79% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

Narrower to Indiana alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #12 safest of 45 Other General Government Suppo employers in Indiana.

Fire Department (299 employees, TCR 1.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 93 employees and a TCR of 4.6

Fire Department has more employees than the Other General Government Support median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.6.
