The verdict

Cell O Core runs at 280% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Balloons, plastics, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Cell O Core: 9.2 TCR = 280% of Balloons, plastics, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Cell O Core safety composite

Cell O Core scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 10%), 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).

Cell O Core has fewer employees than the Balloons, plastics, manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.5. 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.
