The verdict

Osceola runs at 147% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Fabrication workplace, earning a grade D.

Osceola: 4.8 TCR = 147% of Fabrication BLS 3.3 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Osceola safety composite

Osceola scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 68% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 41%), 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).
