The verdict

Gates Foundation runs at 67% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade B.

Gates Foundation: 2.0 TCR = 67% of industry BLS 3.0 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Gates Foundation safety composite

Gates Foundation scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 74% 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).
