The verdict

MEM runs at 34% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Couriers & Messengers workplace, earning a grade A.

MEM: 2.2 TCR = 34% of Couriers & Messengers BLS 6.5 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MEM safety composite

MEM scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 94% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
