G&F Recycling: 7.2 TCR = 278% of material recovery facility BLS 2.6 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

G&F Recycling safety composite

G&F Recycling scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 22%), 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).

G&F Recycling has fewer employees than the material recovery facility median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.8. 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.
