The verdict

Willow Farms runs at 21% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Strawberry farming workplace, earning a grade A.

Willow Farms: 0.9 TCR = 21% of Strawberry farming BLS 4.5 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Willow Farms safety composite

Willow Farms scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 89% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

Narrower to California alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #13 safest of 124 Strawberry farming employers in California.

Willow Farms (48 employees, TCR 0.9) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 208 employees and a TCR of 3.9
