The verdict

Station 61 runs at 330% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Fire Protection workplace, earning a grade F.

Station 61: 10.6 TCR = 330% of Fire Protection BLS 3.2 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Station 61 safety composite

Station 61 scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 85% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 46%), 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).
