Wadsworth Atheneum: 4.6 TCR = 149% of Art museums BLS 3.1 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Wadsworth Atheneum safety composite

Wadsworth Atheneum scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 28%), 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).

Grade D

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Connecticut alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #3 safest of 6 Art museums employers in Connecticut.

Wadsworth Atheneum (48 employees, TCR 4.6) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 81 employees and a TCR of 3.3

Wadsworth Atheneum has fewer employees than the Art museums median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.3. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
