The verdict

USD runs at 82% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Freight Transportation workplace, earning a grade C.

USD: 3.7 TCR = 82% of Freight Transportation BLS 4.5 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

USD safety composite

USD scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 76% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).
