The verdict

Fire Station No. 1 runs at 64% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Fire departments (e.g., government, volunteer (except private)) workplace, earning a grade B.

Fire Station No. 1: 2.1 TCR = 64% of Fire departments (e.g., government, volunteer (except private)) BLS 3.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fire Station No. 1 safety composite

Fire Station No. 1 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 94% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 48%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).
