The verdict

Tops 22 runs at 117% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Grocery stores workplace, earning a grade C.

Tops 22: 4.0 TCR = 117% of Grocery stores BLS 3.4 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Tops 22 safety composite

Tops 22 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 61% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 36%), 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).
