The verdict

Milling: 1.0 TCR = 37% of HIGHWAY STREET AND BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION BLS 2.8 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Milling safety composite

Milling scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 53%), 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).
