The verdict

Fire Protection runs at 722% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Ambulance and fire service combined workplace, earning a grade F.

Fire Protection: 23.1 TCR = 722% of Ambulance and fire service combined BLS 3.2 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire Protection safety composite

Fire Protection scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 5%), 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 Protection (44 employees, TCR 23.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 54 employees and a TCR of 9.8

Fire Protection has fewer employees than the Ambulance and fire service combined median and a higher 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.
