The verdict

DSSA-AZ runs at 9% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Air bag assemblies manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.

DSSA-AZ: 0.5 TCR = 9% of Air bag assemblies manufacturing BLS 5.4 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

DSSA-AZ safety composite

DSSA-AZ scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 97% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 51%), 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).
