Merritt Contracting: 6.1 TCR = 218% of Chimney, concrete, construction BLS 2.8 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Merritt Contracting safety composite

Merritt Contracting scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 81% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 29%), 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).
