The verdict

EIW runs at 456% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Amalgamators (i.e., metallurgical and mining machinery) manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

EIW: 15.1 TCR = 456% of Amalgamators (i.e., metallurgical and mining machinery) manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

EIW safety composite

EIW scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 1%), 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).
