Elbex Corp.: 2.4 TCR = 73% of Extruded, molded or lathe-cut rubber goods manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Elbex Corp. safety composite

Elbex Corp. scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 85% 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).
