The verdict

Sheriff runs at 180% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade D.

Sheriff: 5.8 TCR = 180% of industry BLS 3.2 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Sheriff safety composite

Sheriff scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 41%), 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).
