The verdict

Northlake runs at 37% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Cold storage warehousing workplace, earning a grade A.

Northlake: 2.2 TCR = 37% of Cold storage warehousing BLS 5.8 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Northlake safety composite

Northlake scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
