The verdict

EMC runs at 167% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical HVAC (heating, ventilation and air-conditioning) contractors workplace, earning a grade D.

EMC: 4.7 TCR = 167% of HVAC (heating, ventilation and air-conditioning) contractors BLS 2.8 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)

EMC safety composite

EMC scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 28%), 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).

EMC has more employees than the HVAC (heating, ventilation and air-condi median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.3. 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.
