The verdict
Flexan runs at 55% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical Extruded, molded or lathe-cut rubber goods manufacturing workplace, earning a grade B.
Flexan: 1.8 TCR = 55% of Extruded, molded or lathe-cut rubber goods manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Flexan safety composite
Flexan scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 40%), 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).
