The verdict

First Student runs at 91% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical School bus services workplace, earning a grade C.

First Student: 4.1 TCR = 91% of School bus services BLS 4.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

First Student safety composite

First Student scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 53% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 31%), 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).

Grade C

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Missouri alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #20 safest of 48 School bus services employers in Missouri.

First Student (116 employees, TCR 4.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 74 employees and a TCR of 4.3

First Student has more employees than the School bus services median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.3. 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.
