The verdict

Benchmark runs at 120% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade C.

Benchmark: 4.0 TCR = 120% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Benchmark safety composite

Benchmark scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 41%), 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).

Benchmark (97 employees, TCR 4.0) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 48 employees and a TCR of 3.5

Benchmark has more employees than the Machine shops median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5. 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.
