The verdict

Transportation runs at 44% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Bus operation, school and employee workplace, earning a grade A.

Transportation: 2.0 TCR = 44% of Bus operation, school and employee BLS 4.5 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Transportation safety composite

Transportation scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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 more employees than the Bus operation, school and employee median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.3. 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.
