The verdict

Puerto Rico safety composite

Puerto Rico scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 8%), 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).

Grade F

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Puerto Rico (100 employees, TCR 9.9) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 30 employees and a TCR of 3.5

Puerto Rico has more employees than the Seeds (e.g., field, flower, garden) merc median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5. 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.
