Engine Works: 1.9 TCR = 58% of Diesel and semidiesel engines manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 9y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Engine Works safety composite

Engine Works scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 65% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).
