Apple Die Central: 6.6 TCR = 199% of Cutting dies, metalworking, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Apple Die Central safety composite

Apple Die Central scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 74% 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).
