Air Technologies: 3.7 TCR = 168% of General-purpose industrial machinery and equipment merchant wholesalers BLS 2.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Air Technologies safety composite

Air Technologies scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 19%), 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).
