The verdict

UBG runs at 110% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Freight Transportation workplace, earning a grade C.

UBG: 5.0 TCR = 110% of Freight Transportation BLS 4.5 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

UBG safety composite

UBG scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 59% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 49%), 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).
