The verdict

Middle School runs at 541% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical K-12 Education workplace, earning a grade F.

Middle School: 7.6 TCR = 541% of K-12 Education BLS 1.4 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Middle School safety composite

Middle School scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 79% 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

Where Middle School falls in its industry

3,374 K-12 Education establishments

Safer than 18% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 3.8.

Grade F

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Minnesota alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #1355 safest of 1589 K-12 Education employers in Minnesota.

Middle School (23 employees, TCR 7.6) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 76 employees and a TCR of 3.8

Middle School has fewer employees than the K-12 Education median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.8. 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.
