Combe Laboratories: 4.7 TCR = 141% of Towelettes, premoistened, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Combe Laboratories safety composite

Combe Laboratories scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 18%), 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).

More dangerous than peersSafer than peers

Narrower to Illinois alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #18 safest of 24 Towelettes, premoistened, manu employers in Illinois.

Combe Laboratories (80 employees, TCR 4.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 161 employees and a TCR of 2.3

Combe Laboratories has fewer employees than the Towelettes, premoistened, manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.3. 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.
