The verdict

Del-Air Mechanical runs at 140% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Mechanical contractors workplace, earning a grade D.

Del-Air Mechanical: 3.9 TCR = 140% of Mechanical contractors BLS 2.8 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Del-Air Mechanical safety composite

Del-Air Mechanical scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 54% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 44%), 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).
