The verdict

SHU runs at 47% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical industry workplace, earning a grade A.

SHU: 1.4 TCR = 47% of industry BLS 3.0 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

SHU safety composite

SHU scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 85% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
