The verdict

2551 runs at 180% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Chemical gases merchant wholesalers workplace, earning a grade D.

2551: 4.0 TCR = 180% of Chemical gases merchant wholesalers BLS 2.2 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

2551 safety composite

2551 scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 70% 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).
