The verdict

Montana runs at 49% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Motor freight carrier, general, long-distance, truckload (TL) workplace, earning a grade A.

Montana: 2.2 TCR = 49% of Motor freight carrier, general, long-distance, truckload (TL) BLS 4.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Montana safety composite

Montana scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 66% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 52%), 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).
