The verdict

Northern Area runs at 375% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade F.

Northern Area: 4.5 TCR = 375% of industry BLS 1.2 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Northern Area safety composite

Northern Area scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 14%), 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).
