The verdict

EnerSys runs at 240% of its industry's injury rate - far more dangerous than the typical Lead acid storage batteries manufacturing workplace, earning a grade F.

EnerSys: 7.9 TCR = 240% of Lead acid storage batteries manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

EnerSys safety composite

EnerSys scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 6%), 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).
