4007 Apex: 5.4 TCR = 245% of Lumber/Plywood/Millwork/Wood Panel Whlsl BLS 2.2 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

4007 Apex safety composite

4007 Apex scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 38%), 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).
