Ecolab: 1.0 TCR = 29% of Detergents (e.g., dishwashing, industrial, laundry) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Ecolab safety composite

Ecolab scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 80% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 43%), 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).
