Fire Department: 2.7 TCR = 83% of Fire and rescue service BLS 3.2 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire Department safety composite

Fire Department scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 91% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 43%), 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).

Fire Department has fewer employees than the Fire and rescue service median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 9.8. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
