Public Works Department safety composite

Public Works Department scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 81% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 4%), 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).

Public Works Department (17 employees, TCR 14.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 69 employees and a TCR of 3.0

Public Works Department has fewer employees than the Highway construction median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.0. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
