The verdict

CA038 runs at 31% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Guided missile and space vehicle manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

CA038: 1.0 TCR = 31% of Guided missile and space vehicle manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

CA038 safety composite

CA038 scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 16%), 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).

Benchmarked live against every credibly-rated employer in the same NAICS industry code in the current OSHA extract (a segment must have at least 8 rated peers to benchmark). Not a legal or compliance determination; PlainSafetyScore's own weighting (TCR 40%, DART 35%, fatalities 25%).

CA038 held a steady TCR band

CA038's TCR held near 0.0 from 1.1 in 2017 to 1.1 in 2023. Peak filing year was 2022 at 2.1 TCR. In 2023, DART was 1.06× this establishment's average TCR (severity share of cases).

CA038 (88 employees, TCR 1.0) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 504 employees and a TCR of 1.1

CA038 has fewer employees than the Guided missile and space vehicle manufac median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.1. 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.
