The verdict

54Vets runs at 198% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Organo-inorganic compound manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

54Vets: 6.5 TCR = 198% of Organo-inorganic compound manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

54Vets safety composite

54Vets scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 75% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 5%), 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).

54Vets has fewer employees than the Organo-inorganic compound manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.5. 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.
