The verdict

Fire Department runs at 598% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Fire Department workplace, earning a grade F.

Fire Department: 19.1 TCR = 598% of Fire Department BLS 3.2 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire Department safety composite

Fire Department scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 66% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 13%), 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).
