The verdict

Avantech runs at 173% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Industrial molds (except steel ingot) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

Avantech: 5.7 TCR = 173% of Industrial molds (except steel ingot) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Avantech safety composite

Avantech scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 9%), 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).
