The verdict

NJRC runs at 455% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Waste Management workplace, earning a grade F.

NJRC: 11.8 TCR = 455% of Waste Management BLS 2.6 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NJRC safety composite

NJRC scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 11%), 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).
