Public Works runs at 324% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Municipal Government workplace, earning a grade F.

Public Works: 10.4 TCR = 324% of Municipal Government BLS 3.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Public Works safety composite

Public Works scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 17%), 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 has fewer employees than the Municipal Government median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.6. 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.
