The verdict

Culinary Brands runs at 25% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Tortillas manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

Culinary Brands: 0.8 TCR = 25% of Tortillas manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Culinary Brands safety composite

Culinary Brands scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 96% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).

Narrower to California alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #1 safest of 24 Tortillas manufacturing employers in California.

Culinary Brands (83 employees, TCR 0.8) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 109 employees and a TCR of 4.7
