The verdict

NRM runs at 151% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Freight Transportation workplace, earning a grade D.

NRM: 6.8 TCR = 151% of Freight Transportation BLS 4.5 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

NRM safety composite

NRM scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 7%), 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).
