The verdict

Designed Equipment runs at 141% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Scaffold erecting and dismantling workplace, earning a grade D.

Designed Equipment: 4.0 TCR = 141% of Scaffold erecting and dismantling BLS 2.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Designed Equipment safety composite

Designed Equipment scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 73% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 29%), 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).

Designed Equipment has fewer employees than the Scaffold erecting and dismantling median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 1.9. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
