The verdict

XME runs at 99% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Freight Transportation workplace, earning a grade C.

XME: 4.5 TCR = 99% of Freight Transportation BLS 4.5 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

XME safety composite

XME scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 66% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 26%), 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).

XME has more employees than the Freight Transportation median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 5.6. 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.
