The verdict

West Basin runs at 506% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Wastewater workplace, earning a grade F.

West Basin: 6.1 TCR = 506% of Wastewater BLS 1.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

West Basin safety composite

West Basin scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 7%), 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).
