The verdict

ABL Space Systems runs at 115% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Space vehicles, complete, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

ABL Space Systems: 3.8 TCR = 115% of Space vehicles, complete, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ABL Space Systems safety composite

ABL Space Systems scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 7%), 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).
