Lafayette: 5.9 TCR = 131% of Trucking BLS 4.5 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Lafayette safety composite

Lafayette scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 53% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 19%), 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).
