The verdict

FreeBird runs at 131% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Poultry slaughtering, dressing, and packing workplace, earning a grade D.

FreeBird: 4.3 TCR = 131% of Poultry slaughtering, dressing, and packing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

FreeBird safety composite

FreeBird scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 21%), 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).
