The verdict

Outside Plant runs at 40% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Telephone line construction workplace, earning a grade A.

Outside Plant: 1.1 TCR = 40% of Telephone line construction BLS 2.8 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Outside Plant safety composite

Outside Plant scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 71% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 34%), 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).
