Cooper Standard: 1.7 TCR = 51% of Extruded, molded or lathe-cut rubber goods manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 7y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Cooper Standard safety composite

Cooper Standard scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 85% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
