The verdict

Heartland Foods runs at 168% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Grocery stores workplace, earning a grade D.

Heartland Foods: 5.7 TCR = 168% of Grocery stores BLS 3.4 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Heartland Foods safety composite

Heartland Foods scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 87% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 37%), 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).

Grade D

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Kansas alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #125 safest of 159 Grocery stores employers in Kansas.

Heartland Foods (45 employees, TCR 5.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 99 employees and a TCR of 4.7

Heartland Foods has fewer employees than the Grocery stores median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.7. 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.
