Houston runs at 30% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Waste transfer stations, hazardous workplace, earning a grade A.

Houston: 0.8 TCR = 30% of Waste transfer stations, hazardous BLS 2.6 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Houston safety composite

Houston scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 90% 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).
