The verdict

Alpase runs at 51% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Aluminum ingot, secondary smelting of aluminum and manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Alpase: 1.7 TCR = 51% of Aluminum ingot, secondary smelting of aluminum and manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Alpase safety composite

Alpase scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 84% 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).
