The verdict

Unit # 2870 runs at 206% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Retail workplace, earning a grade F.

Unit # 2870 safety composite

Unit # 2870 scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 9%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers.
