The verdict

Walden runs at 158% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

Walden: 4.1 TCR = 158% of Manufacturing BLS 2.6 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Walden safety composite

Walden scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 20%), 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).
