The verdict

Arclight Dynamics runs at 552% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Plasma process metal cutting machines (except welding equipment) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Arclight Dynamics: 18.2 TCR = 552% of Plasma process metal cutting machines (except welding equipment) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Arclight Dynamics safety composite

Arclight Dynamics scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 1%), 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).
