The verdict

Northern Operations runs at 70% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Commercial building construction workplace, earning a grade B.

Northern Operations: 2.0 TCR = 70% of Commercial building construction BLS 2.9 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Northern Operations safety composite

Northern Operations scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 55% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 46%), 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).

Grade B

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Wisconsin alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #37 safest of 149 Commercial building constructi employers in Wisconsin.

Northern Operations (1,321 employees, TCR 2.0) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 55 employees and a TCR of 2.3

Northern Operations has more employees than the Commercial building construction median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.3. 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.
