The verdict

Carleton Life Support Systems runs at 19% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Aircraft assemblies, subassemblies, and parts (except engines) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Carleton Life Support Systems: 0.6 TCR = 19% of Aircraft assemblies, subassemblies, and parts (except engines) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Carleton Life Support Systems safety composite

Carleton Life Support Systems scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 46%), 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).
