The verdict

FTC Solar runs at 29% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical Solar power structure construction workplace, earning a grade A.

FTC Solar: 0.8 TCR = 29% of Solar power structure construction BLS 2.8 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

FTC Solar safety composite

FTC Solar scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 81% of same-industry peers) and weakest on fatalities (safer than 52%), 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).
