The verdict

Dynamic Ceramics runs at 203% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Clay refractories (e.g., mortar, brick, tile, block) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

Dynamic Ceramics: 6.7 TCR = 203% of Clay refractories (e.g., mortar, brick, tile, block) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Dynamic Ceramics safety composite

Dynamic Ceramics scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 84% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 20%), 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).

Narrower to Pennsylvania alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #26 safest of 36 Clay refractories (e.g., morta employers in Pennsylvania.

Dynamic Ceramics (24 employees, TCR 6.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 57 employees and a TCR of 3.7

Dynamic Ceramics has fewer employees than the Clay refractories (e.g., mortar, brick, median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.7. 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.
