The verdict

DMDL runs at 53% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Distribution of electric power workplace, earning a grade B.

DMDL: 0.6 TCR = 53% of Distribution of electric power BLS 1.2 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

DMDL safety composite

DMDL scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 91% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 46%), 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).
