The verdict

Burton Industries runs at 35% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Printed circuit assemblies manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Burton Industries: 1.2 TCR = 35% of Printed circuit assemblies manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Burton Industries safety composite

Burton Industries scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 50%), 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).
