The verdict

Caterpillar runs at 59% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Foundry casting molds manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Caterpillar: 1.9 TCR = 59% of Foundry casting molds manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Caterpillar safety composite

Caterpillar scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 78% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 47%), 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).

Caterpillar has more employees than the Foundry casting molds manufacturing 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.
