The verdict

Afton runs at 78% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Injection molding machinery for plastics manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Afton: 2.6 TCR = 78% of Injection molding machinery for plastics manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Afton safety composite

Afton scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 58% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 0%), 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).
