The verdict

CON runs at 174% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Manufacture Non Woven Fiber workplace, earning a grade D.

CON: 5.7 TCR = 174% of Manufacture Non Woven Fiber BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

CON safety composite

CON scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 6%), 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).

CON (65 employees, TCR 5.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 82 employees and a TCR of 3.5

CON has fewer employees than the Manufacture Non Woven Fiber 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.
