The verdict

First Student runs at 42% 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 = 42% of Bus operation, school and employee BLS 4.5 · 3y 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).

Where First Student falls in its industry

1,574 Bus operation, school and empl establishments

Safer than 84% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 4.3.

Grade A

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Pennsylvania alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #47 safest of 227 Bus operation, school and empl employers in Pennsylvania.

First Student (41 employees, TCR 1.9) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 74 employees and a TCR of 4.3

First Student has fewer employees than the Bus operation, school and employee 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.
