XOW safety composite
XOW scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 52% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 30%), 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).

3,020 Freight Transportation establishmentsSafer than 30% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 5.6.
Narrower to Minnesota alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #24 safest of 46 Freight Transportation employers in Minnesota.
