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).

Flexan has more employees than the Extruded, molded or lathe-cut rubber goo median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 2.0. 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.
