The verdict
LVA runs at 160% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade D.
LVA: 8.3 TCR = 160% of industry BLS 5.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)
LVA safety composite
LVA scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 18%), 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).
