The verdict

Direct mat runs at 44% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical CARPET AND RUG MILLS workplace, earning a grade A.

Direct mat: 1.4 TCR = 44% of CARPET AND RUG MILLS BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Direct mat safety composite

Direct mat scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 60% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 18%), 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).
