The verdict

Fairmont Plant runs at 95% of its industry's injury rate - about level with the typical Ethanol, nonpotable, manufacturing workplace, earning a grade C.

Fairmont Plant: 3.1 TCR = 95% of Ethanol, nonpotable, manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Fairmont Plant safety composite

Fairmont Plant scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 77% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 48%), 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).
