The verdict

RFD runs at 144% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Air passenger carriers, scheduled workplace, earning a grade D.

RFD: 6.5 TCR = 144% of Air passenger carriers, scheduled BLS 4.5 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

RFD safety composite

RFD scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 91% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 47%), 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).

RFD has fewer employees than the Air passenger carriers, scheduled median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 6.1. 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.
