The verdict

Converting 2 runs at 175% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Film, plastics, packaging, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

Converting 2: 5.8 TCR = 175% of Film, plastics, packaging, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Converting 2 safety composite

Converting 2 scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 17%), 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).
