The verdict

LAX runs at 60% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Automobile carrier trucking, long-distance workplace, earning a grade B.

LAX: 2.7 TCR = 60% of Automobile carrier trucking, long-distance BLS 4.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

LAX safety composite

LAX scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 53%), 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).
