The verdict

MLC runs at 107% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Landscape care and maintenance services workplace, earning a grade C.

MLC: 4.8 TCR = 107% of Landscape care and maintenance services BLS 4.5 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

MLC safety composite

MLC scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 47%), 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).

MLC has fewer employees than the Landscape care and maintenance services median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.7. 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.
