Bham 1: 3.0 TCR = 90% of Hot dip galvanizing metals and metal products for the trade BLS 3.3 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Bham 1 safety composite

Bham 1 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 62% 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).
