The verdict

Fabrication runs at 132% of its industry's injury rate - more dangerous than the typical Racks (e.g., bicycle, luggage, ski, tire), automotive, truck, and buses manufacturing workplace, earning a grade D.

Fabrication: 7.1 TCR = 132% of Racks (e.g., bicycle, luggage, ski, tire), automotive, truck, and buses manufacturing BLS 5.4 · 6y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fabrication safety composite

Fabrication scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 89% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 12%), 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).

Fabrication has fewer employees than the Racks (e.g., bicycle, luggage, ski, tire median and a higher injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 3.2. 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.
