DeShazo Automation LLC: 0.7 TCR = 22% of Testing, weighing, inspecting, packaging machinery manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

DeShazo Automation LLC safety composite

DeShazo Automation LLC scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 91% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 36%), 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).
