The verdict
ALT runs at 62% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Microprocessor chip manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.
ALT: 2.1 TCR = 62% of Microprocessor chip manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)
ALT safety composite
ALT scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 17%), 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).

Where ALT falls in its industry
437 Microprocessor chip manufactur establishmentsSafer than 17% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 0.9.
Narrower to Pennsylvania alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #7 safest of 12 Microprocessor chip manufactur employers in Pennsylvania.
ALT has more employees than the Microprocessor chip manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 0.9. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
