The verdict

AECON-WACHS runs at 44% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Welding, on site, contractors workplace, earning a grade A.

AECON-WACHS: 1.2 TCR = 44% of Welding, on site, contractors BLS 2.8 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

AECON-WACHS safety composite

AECON-WACHS scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
