The verdict

APTCO runs at 174% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Food containers, polystyrene foam, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

APTCO: 5.7 TCR = 174% of Food containers, polystyrene foam, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

APTCO safety composite

APTCO scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 55% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 19%), 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).
