The verdict

BASF Corporation runs at 13% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Catalytic converters, engine exhaust, automotive, truck, and bus, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

BASF Corporation: 0.7 TCR = 13% of Catalytic converters, engine exhaust, automotive, truck, and bus, manufacturing BLS 5.4 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BASF Corporation safety composite

BASF Corporation scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 94% 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).
