The verdict

Applied Materials Finishing runs at 93% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Varnishing metals and metal products for the trade workplace, earning a grade C.

Applied Materials Finishing: 3.1 TCR = 93% of Varnishing metals and metal products for the trade BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Applied Materials Finishing safety composite

Applied Materials Finishing scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 61% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 4%), 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).

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Ohio alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #25 safest of 52 Varnishing metals and metal pr employers in Ohio.

Applied Materials Finishing (22 employees, TCR 3.1) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 58 employees and a TCR of 3.9

Applied Materials Finishing has fewer employees than the Varnishing metals and metal products for median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.9. 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.
