The verdict

BAE Systems runs at 74% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Plumbing, Heating & AC workplace, earning a grade B.

BAE Systems: 2.1 TCR = 74% of Plumbing, Heating & AC BLS 2.8 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BAE Systems safety composite

BAE Systems scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).

BAE Systems has fewer employees than the Plumbing, Heating & AC median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.3. 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.
