The verdict

Colony Cat Litter runs at 87% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Colony Cat Litter: 2.9 TCR = 87% of Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Colony Cat Litter safety composite

Colony Cat Litter scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 76% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 35%), 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).
