The verdict
Frontgrade Technologies runs at 29% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Microwave components manufacturing workplace, earning a grade A.
Frontgrade Technologies: 0.9 TCR = 29% of Microwave components manufacturing BLS 3.3 · 2y Form 300A (see methodology below)
Frontgrade Technologies safety composite
Frontgrade Technologies scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 73% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 49%), 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).
