The verdict

BTU International runs at 85% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Surface mount machinery for making printed circuit boards manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

BTU International: 2.8 TCR = 85% of Surface mount machinery for making printed circuit boards manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

BTU International safety composite

BTU International scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 20%), 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).

Where BTU International falls in its industry

133 Surface mount machinery for ma establishments

Safer than 20% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 1.2.

Grade C

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Massachusetts alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #17 safest of 18 Surface mount machinery for ma employers in Massachusetts.

BTU International (111 employees, TCR 2.8) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 100 employees and a TCR of 1.2

BTU International has more employees than the Surface mount machinery for making print median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.2. 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.
