The verdict

Carrier runs at 66% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Bar, copper and copper alloy, made from purchased copper or in integrated secondary smelting and rolling, drawing or extruding plants workplace, earning a grade B.

Carrier: 2.2 TCR = 66% of Bar, copper and copper alloy, made from purchased copper or in integrated secondary smelting and rolling, drawing or extruding plants BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Carrier safety composite

Carrier scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 71% 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).

Grade B

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Kentucky alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #2 safest of 7 Bar, copper and copper alloy, employers in Kentucky.

Carrier (80 employees, TCR 2.2) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 113 employees and a TCR of 3.7

Carrier has fewer employees than the Bar, copper and copper alloy, made from median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.7. 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.
