The verdict

Division 10 & 19 runs at 111% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Starch glues manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Division 10 & 19: 3.7 TCR = 111% of Starch glues manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Division 10 & 19 safety composite

Division 10 & 19 scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 82% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 32%), 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).

Division 10 & 19 (40 employees, TCR 3.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 63 employees and a TCR of 2.7

Division 10 & 19 has fewer employees than the Starch glues manufacturing median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.7. 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.
