The verdict

First Student runs at 43% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Bus operation, school and employee workplace, earning a grade A.

First Student: 1.9 TCR = 43% of Bus operation, school and employee BLS 4.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

First Student safety composite

First Student scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
