The verdict

Method TCS runs at 253% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Flagging (i.e., traffic control) services workplace, earning a grade F.

Method TCS: 6.6 TCR = 253% of Flagging (i.e., traffic control) services BLS 2.6 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Method TCS safety composite

Method TCS scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 19%), 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).

Method TCS has fewer employees than the Flagging (i.e., traffic control) service median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.1. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
