The verdict

ADC runs at 167% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Foundries, die-casting, nonferrous metals workplace, earning a grade D.

ADC: 5.5 TCR = 167% of Foundries, die-casting, nonferrous metals BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ADC safety composite

ADC scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 59% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 36%), 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).

ADC has more employees than the Foundries, die-casting, nonferrous metal median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.7. 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.
