The verdict

FoodMate US runs at 138% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade D.

FoodMate US: 3.0 TCR = 138% of industry BLS 2.2 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

FoodMate US safety composite

FoodMate US scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 46%), 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).
