The verdict

Arc Machines Inc runs at 52% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Arc welding equipment manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Arc Machines Inc: 1.7 TCR = 52% of Arc welding equipment manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Arc Machines Inc safety composite

Arc Machines Inc scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 67% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 41%), 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 California alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #6 safest of 11 Arc welding equipment manufact employers in California.

Arc Machines Inc (78 employees, TCR 1.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 79 employees and a TCR of 2.8

Arc Machines Inc has fewer employees than the Arc welding equipment manufacturing median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.8. 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.
