The verdict

Advanced Material Development runs at 187% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Steel Wire Drawing workplace, earning a grade D.

Advanced Material Development: 6.2 TCR = 187% of Steel Wire Drawing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Advanced Material Development safety composite

Advanced Material Development scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 16%), 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).
