Transportation safety composite
Transportation scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 57% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 25%), 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).

Transportation has fewer employees than the Chickens, processing, fresh, frozen, can median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5.
