The verdict

DRS Drilling runs at 28% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Horizontal drilling (e.g., underground cable, pipeline, sewer installation) workplace, earning a grade A.

DRS Drilling: 0.8 TCR = 28% of Horizontal drilling (e.g., underground cable, pipeline, sewer installation) BLS 2.8 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

DRS Drilling safety composite

DRS Drilling scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 73% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).
