The verdict

Heber Geothermal Facility runs at 312% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Power generation, geothermal workplace, earning a grade F.

Heber Geothermal Facility: 3.7 TCR = 312% of Power generation, geothermal BLS 1.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Heber Geothermal Facility safety composite

Heber Geothermal Facility scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 24%), 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).
