The verdict

MD runs at 105% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Alpaca production workplace, earning a grade C.

MD: 4.7 TCR = 105% of Alpaca production BLS 4.5 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MD safety composite

MD scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 40%), 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).
