The verdict

VAB004 runs at 221% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Tire Dealers workplace, earning a grade F.

VAB004: 7.5 TCR = 221% of Tire Dealers BLS 3.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

VAB004 safety composite

VAB004 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 56% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 12%), 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).
