The verdict

Transportation runs at 77% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Trucking, general freight, long-distance, truckload (TL) workplace, earning a grade B.

Transportation: 3.5 TCR = 77% of Trucking, general freight, long-distance, truckload (TL) BLS 4.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Transportation safety composite

Transportation scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 3%), 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).
