The verdict

Lift Bridge Brewery runs at 65% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Beer brewing workplace, earning a grade B.

Lift Bridge Brewery: 2.1 TCR = 65% of Beer brewing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Lift Bridge Brewery safety composite

Lift Bridge Brewery scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 22%), 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).

Narrower to Minnesota alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #3 safest of 11 Beer brewing employers in Minnesota.

Lift Bridge Brewery (43 employees, TCR 2.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 81 employees and a TCR of 3.7

Lift Bridge Brewery has fewer employees than the Beer brewing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.7.
