The verdict

Station 60 runs at 140% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Fire Protection workplace, earning a grade D.

Station 60: 4.5 TCR = 140% of Fire Protection BLS 3.2 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Station 60 safety composite

Station 60 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 81% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).
