The verdict

Kona runs at 527% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Beverage Distributor workplace, earning a grade F.

Kona: 11.6 TCR = 527% of Beverage Distributor BLS 2.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Kona safety composite

Kona scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 13%), 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).
