The verdict

Aplicare - CT runs at 69% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Surgical and Medical Instruments and Apparatus workplace, earning a grade B.

Aplicare - CT: 2.3 TCR = 69% of Surgical and Medical Instruments and Apparatus BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Aplicare - CT safety composite

Aplicare - CT scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 36%), 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).
