The verdict

Cascade Designs runs at 83% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Snowshoes manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Cascade Designs: 2.8 TCR = 83% of Snowshoes manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Cascade Designs safety composite

Cascade Designs scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 61% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 19%), 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).
