The verdict

Police runs at 304% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Police / Public Safety workplace, earning a grade F.

Police: 9.7 TCR = 304% of Police / Public Safety BLS 3.2 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Police safety composite

Police scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 53% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 29%), 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).
