HVF West LLC: 10.5 TCR = 404% of Materials recovery facilities (MRF) BLS 2.6 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

HVF West LLC safety composite

HVF West LLC scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 9%), 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).
