The verdict

Directed runs at 66% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Automotive theft alarm systems manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Directed: 2.2 TCR = 66% of Automotive theft alarm systems manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Directed safety composite

Directed scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 67% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 26%), 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).
