The verdict

HQ runs at 226% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Site Preparation Contractors workplace, earning a grade F.

HQ: 6.3 TCR = 226% of Site Preparation Contractors BLS 2.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

HQ safety composite

HQ scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 12%), 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).
