The verdict

The Monitor runs at 597% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Newspaper publishers and printing combined workplace, earning a grade F.

The Monitor: 4.2 TCR = 597% of Newspaper publishers and printing combined BLS 0.7 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

The Monitor safety composite

The Monitor scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 29%), 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).

The Monitor has more employees than the Newspaper publishers and printing combin median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.4. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
