The verdict

Cook Compression runs at 42% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Machine shops workplace, earning a grade A.

Cook Compression: 1.4 TCR = 42% of Machine shops BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Cook Compression safety composite

Cook Compression scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 47%), 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).
