The verdict

BD Sumter runs at 27% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Anesthesia apparatus manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

BD Sumter: 0.9 TCR = 27% of Anesthesia apparatus manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BD Sumter safety composite

BD Sumter scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 69% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 44%), 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).
