The verdict
Design Octaves runs at 276% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.
Design Octaves: 9.1 TCR = 276% of Manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Design Octaves safety composite
Design Octaves scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 50% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 10%), 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).
