The verdict

Dielectrics runs at 59% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Acrylic film and unlaminated sheet (except packaging) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Dielectrics: 1.9 TCR = 59% of Acrylic film and unlaminated sheet (except packaging) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Dielectrics safety composite

Dielectrics scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 62% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 37%), 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).
