The verdict

Spencer runs at 244% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Warehouse workplace, earning a grade F.

Spencer: 11.0 TCR = 244% of Warehouse BLS 4.5 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Spencer safety composite

Spencer scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 90% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 10%), 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).
