The verdict

Duracell Manufacturing runs at 59% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Alkaline cell primary batteries manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.

Duracell Manufacturing: 2.0 TCR = 59% of Alkaline cell primary batteries manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 4y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Duracell Manufacturing safety composite

Duracell Manufacturing scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 86% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 48%), 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).
